HB2560

THE CONTEXT: Arizona Voter Identification Database As of 2019, the State of Arizona has operated a voter registration and election management system called the Arizona Voter Information Database (AVID). 13 counties directly use AVID to input voter registration and election information while Maricopa and Pima County have individual systems that are linked to AVID through an interface.

WHAT THE BILL DID: The final vetoed version would instruct the County Recorders to prepare a list of all registered voters, including persons on the inactive voter list, at least 10 days before each election, limit the information the County Recorders may include in the specified voter registration list to the voters' full registered names, years of birth, street addresses and precinct numbers, and specifies the list may include secured registrants and voters enrolled in ACP by total number only.

WHY IT MATTERED: The practical reason for this bill was to turn the Legislature's standard for images into an enforceable rule. It would instruct the County Recorders to prepare a list of all registered voters, including persons on the inactive voter list, at least 10 days before each election, and would also limit the information the County Recorders may include in the specified voter registration list to the voters' full registered names, years of birth, street addresses and precinct numbers, rather than leave the current rule unchanged.
