Bill Summary
AN ACT amending sections 16-411 and 16-542, Arizona Revised Statutes; relating to conduct of elections.
AI Summary
This bill amends Arizona law to expand early voting options and accessibility. Specifically, it removes provisions for "emergency voting centers," which allowed for flexibility in establishing temporary voting locations during elections under specific circumstances. Instead, the bill mandates that county recorders must establish on-site early voting locations at their offices, which will be open on the Saturday and Sunday before Election Day until 7:00 p.m., and on the Monday before Election Day until at least 3:00 p.m., with the option to extend until 7:00 p.m. This change aims to provide more consistent and extended early voting opportunities for all voters, replacing the previous discretionary "emergency" option with a set schedule.
