AI Summary

This bill amends existing Arizona law to add a new provision that prohibits voter intimidation, specifically targeting individuals who interfere with or harass voters attempting to deliver their ballots to a lawful recipient or receptacle. This new prohibition, which is classified as a class 2 misdemeanor, meaning it's a less serious criminal offense, is defined as conduct directed at one or more persons that constitutes harassment as prescribed in a separate section of law (section 13-2921). The bill's intent is to protect the integrity of the ballot return process by making it illegal to intimidate voters during this crucial step.
