ARIZONA – Secretary of State Ken Bennett
reminds Arizonans that Monday, July 28th before midnight is the last
day to register to vote or update voter registration to cast a ballot in the
upcoming August 26th Primary Election.
“It is
encouraging to see the citizens of Arizona taking seriously their role in
government,” said Secretary Bennett. “The ability to vote for our leaders is a
fundamental right more people should exercise.”
To be
eligible to register, a person must be a citizen of the United States, 18 or
older as well as a resident of Arizona and the county listed on the person’s
registration. To view personal voter registration information, go online to the
Secretary of State’s website at www.azsos.gov and click on the Voter View icon.
Information on a person’s current registration, polling place, party
affiliation and more is available.
There are
three different ways to register to vote: by mail, in-person and online.
Mail-in registration forms are available from the County Recorder and online from
the Secretary of State at www.azsos.gov and click on the Voter
Registration icon. Simply, fill in the form, print
the form, sign and date it, affix the proper postage and mail the form to the
County Recorder of the county of legal residence. In-person registration is also
available at the County Recorder’s Office. If a legal Arizona resident has
an identification card or driver license issued by the state of Arizona, the
resident may register to vote or update voter registration online at www.ServiceArizona.com.
