VOTING
RESTRICTIONS
The new voter suppressions laws 1) SB 1485 removes the “Permanent” from the PEVL, taking voters off the early voting list if they do not vote by mail for two consecutive elections and fail to respond to a notice. This would disenfranchise thousands of voters and put pressure on in-person polling locations and 2) SB 1003 changes the way ballots are "cured" for mail-in ballots, which requires ballots without a signature to be cured by 7 PM on Election Day.
IMPACT ON
STUDENT VOTERS
Purging of infrequent voters from the early voting lists would affect students as well.
-
It is recommended that you check on your early voting status well in advance of the ballot request deadline to ensure you receive your mail-in ballot.
-
If your mailing address is the same as your home address - or if your mailing address and home address is in the same county, you may opt to add your name to the AZ PEVL.
-
If you haven't applied for a mail-in ballot, vote in person during the early voting period or on election day. Verify your voter registration first.
Students can register to vote at the address they consider their legal residence, whether that is their family's home or where they attend school.
You may vote even if your driver's license is from out-of-state. Your AZ driver's license doesn't have to have current address. Follow the voter registration process to ensure information is kept up-to-date.
Use the VOTERIDERS link on this page above for the latest voter ID requirements. New legislation can affect these requirements so check them in advance of the early voting period. Another bill in the Arizona legislature is making it harder for students to even be on the voting rolls by making it illegal to hold voter registration drives on non-government property.
