ballot measures; judges; odd-numbered years

SCR 1020 proposes a constitutional amendment to move Arizona judicial elections from even-numbered years to odd-numbered years. It would directly affect judicial candidates and voters by changing the timing of elections for state judges. The bill amends constitutional provisions governing judicial elections (Article VI, Sections 12, 28, 30, 35, and 39) and repeals related sections (36-38, 40-42) that currently govern election timing. This change would require voter approval before taking effect, as it modifies Arizona's constitution. The amendment aims to align judicial elections with other statewide races held in odd-numbered years.
