automatic voter registration; same day

SB 1192 establishes automatic voter registration for Arizona residents applying for or renewing driver’s licenses or nonoperating ID cards at the Department of Transportation, with an opt-out option within 21 days. It also allows same-day voter registration during the 28 days before an election or on election day at polling places, requiring proof of residence and using provisional ballots for that election. The bill mandates that registration information be sent to county recorders within 5 days, and specifies that new registrations qualify for federal, statewide, county, and legislative races but not partisan primaries for 29 days after registration. It updates Arizona Revised Statutes sections 16-106 (voter registration timing) and 16-112 (driver license registration procedures), effective December 31, 2025.
