Arizona Senate Committee Passes Election Integrity Bills—Includes Class 5 Felony for Voting In More Than One Place

An Arizona Senate subcommittee passed six more pieces of legislation on Jan. 31 aimed at shoring up the state’s electoral process following a disputed 2020 election and ballot audit and recount in Maricopa County. The bills were passed by the Senate Committee On Government along party lines.

On Monday, the committee adopted SB1260, which introduces and clarifies language regarding electors who register to vote in more than one county. Other proposed safeguards in the bill include a requirement that voters report ballots received at the address of a former tenant, and that county recorders remove voters from the voting list once it has been confirmed that they have moved away. Those who knowingly vote in more than one place will be guilty of a Class 5 felony fraud charge.

SB1056 would render misplaced ballots invalid if they weren’t included in the initial tally at a polling place for early and provisional ballots. Any person who misplaces a ballot as prescribed in the legislation would be guilty of a Class 2 misdemeanor.

SB1055 would hold election contractors liable for damages if they fail to perform their duties under the terms of the contract and be considered guilty of a Class 2 misdemeanor.

SB1285 seeks to amend state laws regarding the Arizona secretary of state’s instructions and procedures manual to allow a “maximum degree of correctness, impartiality, uniformity, and efficiency on the procedures for early voting,” tabulating, and storing ballots.

SCR1005 would establish and define procedures for voters when obtaining a federal election ballot.
