Covers how Arizona runs elections — the rules, the counties, and the claims that need proof.

Elections
A 6-3 Supreme Court order lets Trump's mail-ballot directive proceed procedurally, but a separate nationwide injunction and rulemaking keep Arizona's system unchanged for now.

Elections
Prop 318's backers filed complaints over a lookalike website they say mimics their campaign and lacks required disclosures. State offices had not responded to the Globe before publication.
Elections
AI moved from committee rooms to campaign stump speeches in 2026. With most voters uneasy about the technology, candidates in multiple states, including Arizona, are rolling out proposals as experts warn against sweeping, one-size-fits-all rules.
Elections
Arizona's Clean Elections Commission kept GOP nominee Ralph Heap in the program while sign-complaint allegations remain unresolved, rejecting his bid to exit as Nick Myers and other Republicans pressed for withdrawal or penalties.
Elections
Yavapai's SAVE-driven voter roll cleanup found deceased registrants, non-citizens, and 268 unknowns, sharpening GOP claims that Gov. Hobbs dismissed needed safeguards. The next test is replication, documentation, and due process.
Elections
Mayes says her probe of Hobbs and Sunshine is nearly done before November. If she closes it without interviewing the governor or a clear explanation, a no-charges decision will look like a partisan whitewash.
Elections
America First Legal says Adrian Fontes' Proposition 144 ballot summary omits key provisions and veers into advocacy. His office calls it neutral and within the law. Judge Adele Ponce will decide.
Elections
At a Thursday commemoration, speakers celebrated the Voting Rights Act's legacy and warned of efforts to roll it back following recent Supreme Court rulings, Arizona Mirror reported.
Elections

Elections
Closed primaries, county ballots, and party rules decide who reaches November. Here is the machinery without the slogans.
Elections
Former Maricopa County Supervisor Bill Gates, now at ASU's Mechanics of Democracy Lab, says Arizona must prove election controls with public evidence, keep administration in state hands, and measure whether new trust-building steps like ID-verified early ballots actually work.
Elections
Hobbs declined a head-to-head with Biggs, who now says he will attend an Oct. 6 Clean Elections debate. With abortion polling and DHS's election-season assurance on ICE in the background, Arizona voters are being asked to accept more message control and fewer unscripted tests.
Elections
A party-line Senate panel opened an ethics investigation into Sen. Catherine Miranda in 2017 over an unchecked box on a voucher referendum petition. One Republican admitted he had the motions written before the hearing started. Six months later the chairwoman dismissed it. Almost nobody wrote the ending.
Elections
The Recorder, Board of Supervisors, and Elections Department split the work. Confusion about those desks is how bad claims spread.
Elections
Kolodin won the GOP nod for Secretary of State. Now the race turns on whether voters get plans and metrics, or just labels and slogans.
Elections
Five legislative contests clarified by the primary now look decisive for control of the narrowly divided Arizona House and Senate in November.

Gov. Katie Hobbs banned Arizona executive branch employees from using nonpublic information to wager on prediction markets, as a federal judge blocked the state's criminal case against Kalshi. The shift puts ethics enforcement, not prosecutions, at the center of Arizona's next-m0
Elections
LD27's GOP Senate primary has become a referendum on automated license plate readers. With no statewide rules in place, the Payne, Kern split will shape whether Arizona imposes guardrails or rejects expanded surveillance at the Capitol.
