write-in candidates; nomination paper filing

This bill establishes new requirements for Arizona voters who want to run as write-in candidates for state or local offices. To qualify, write-in candidates must be residents of the district for 120 days before the election, file detailed information (including address, age, and birth date) by specific deadlines (typically 40-60 days before the election), and prove they owe no more than $1,000 in unpaid fines or penalties. Candidates who previously failed to win a primary election or submit sufficient petition signatures are also disqualified. The law applies to all write-in candidates except for presidential races, which require additional documentation naming a vice-presidential running mate and electors.
