With the 2022 midterm elections right around the corner and the 2024 Presidential election behind it, the Democrats continue to try and overhaul the entire election process. While many states require voters to present a valid form of identification, Democrats suggested the restrictions somehow target African American communities. In Arizona, the Democrats promoted efforts to evaluate and change the state’s election laws. Thankfully, the Arizona Supreme Court ruled against Proposition 210.

If the proposition was approved, it would have altered how people in the state voted. It would have allowed same-day registration, and a person needed nothing more than a pay stub to prove their identity. According to The Federalist, “Titled Proposition 210, the now-failed ballot initiative had the potential to completely overhaul Arizona’s election laws, several of which the state legislature recently passed. The 26-page proposal is very similar to the federal HR 1, the legislation previously introduced by congressional Democrats that would have resulted in a federal takeover of elections.”

Not only did Arizona protect the voting process, but last year they passed another law that removed voters who hadn’t been active. The law “requires the state to remove infrequent voters from the state’s Permanent Early Voting List, turning it into an ‘active’ early voting list.”
The Associated Press reported on the ruling from the state Supreme Court, stating the decision “upholds a lower court ruling issued hours earlier, in which Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Joseph Mikitish rejected thousands of signatures and said the initiative fell 1,458 signatures short of the 238,000 required to qualify for the ballot. The judge’s Friday ruling reversed his own decision from a day earlier after the Supreme Court asked him to explain how he concluded that the initiative had enough valid signatures to qualify. When the judge upheld the measure the day before, [Chief Justice Robert] Brutinel had refused to accept it, saying [the] court was unable to determine exactly how Mikitish came to his determination that backers had collected enough valid signatures for the measure to appear on November’s ballot.”
Praising the move to protect the voting process, the Arizona Free Enterprise Club released a statement saying the ruling “vindicates what we knew all along: the radical Free and Fair election initiative lacked enough lawful signatures to qualify for the ballot. The other side knew it too, and that is why their lawyers tried to get the court to adopt a rigged methodology to calculate the final number of valid signatures that would sneak their disqualified measure onto the ballot.”
Not all were happy about the ruling, Stacy Pearson, a spokesperson for the initiative, said, “This ballot initiative – organized by local, grassroots groups and supported by voters across Arizona – would have protected the freedom to vote, limited the influence of money in politics, and prevented the legislature from overturning election results – as they tried to do after the 2020 presidential election.”
