AI Summary

  • Requires permanent early voting list voters to sign and return a pre-election notice with a copy of their Arizona driver license or nonoperating identification to continue receiving ballots.

  • Directs county recorders to contact voters if returned election notices or voter information does not match their records, and removes voters from the permanent early voting list if discrepancies cannot be resolved.
