HB 2425 Arizona House · 57th Legislature - First Regular Session

voter registration information; registers; violations

HB 2425 modifies Arizona's voter registration rules by requiring county recorders to create detailed electronic precinct lists containing voters' full names, addresses, party preference, registration date, birth year, occupation, voting history, and early ballot data. These lists must be provided electronically to political party chairmen within eight days after registration closes, with specific fee structures for bulk requests (e.g., $93.75 for up to 125,000 records). The bill restricts the use of this data solely to election-related purposes, political campaigns, or authorized election activities, prohibiting commercial use. It ensures uniform data formatting across counties for the secretary of state's statewide database while allowing limited access for political parties and candidates.
