What is the General Election on November 3rd and why is it important?

Voting in a General Election is important because it allows voters to select the candidate they wish to represent them in office.

In this election, voters will determine who serves as the next Governor of Arizona and positions in the state’s executive branch for the next four years, along with offices at the federal and local level, including the state legislature. Likewise, the General Election allows voters the opportunity to decide whether judges and justices of the Arizona Supreme Court and certain lower courts should be retained or replaced.

Voters also have an opportunity to approve or reject laws proposed by the legislature and by voters themselves, known as referendums and initiatives. These measures are referred to by their proposition number.

How to Return Your Early Ballot

1. By Mail

  • Deadline: Mail your ballot back by October 27th.

2. At a Drop-Box or Voting Location

  • Before Election Day: Drop your ballot off at any official voting location or secure drop box.
  • On Election Day: You have two options at the polls:
    • Option A (Fastest drop-off): Drop your signed ballot into the secure bin. Your signature will be verified later before your ballot is counted.
    • Option B (Fastest processing): Show a valid ID to a poll worker to verify your identity on the spot. This skips the signature verification step and speeds up how quickly your ballot is processed.

Preguntas frecuentes sobre votación

1. ¿Cuándo se abren las encuestas?
Las encuestas están abiertas de 6 a.m. a 7 p.m. el día de las elecciones. No olvides tu identificación!
2. ¿Puedo votar temprano?
Absolutamente. Si usted está en la lista Activa de votación anticipada (AEVL), usted recibirá automáticamente una boleta en su buzón comenzando 27 días antes de la elección. Los votantes que no están en AEVL pueden hacer una solicitud de balota temprana de una sola vez.
3. ¿Qué pasa si tengo una emergencia y no puedo votar el día de las elecciones?
La votación anticipada está disponible hasta las 5pm del viernes antes del día de las elecciones. Si un votante no puede votar durante el período de votación anticipada, la votación de emergencia está disponible desde las 5pm del viernes antes del día de las elecciones hasta las 5pm del lunes antes del día de las elecciones. Los votantes deben firmar una declaración jurada bajo pena de perjurio que tienen una emergencia que les impide votar el día de las elecciones (los votantes no necesitan revelar cuál es la emergencia).
4. ¿Necesito ID para votar temprano?
Depende. Si vota temprano por correo, no se requiere identificación. Su firma en la declaración jurada de votación anticipada se compara con su registro de elector por el Registrador del Condado para determinar si la firma es válida.

Se requiere identificación si usted vota temprano en persona, o en un lugar de votación o centro de votación el día de las elecciones.
Lista de identificación aceptable
5. ¿Cómo pueden los electores militares y extranjeros (UOCAVA) obtener una boleta electoral?
Los electores militares y extranjeros tienen derechos especiales de voto bajo la ley federal y estatal (Ley de voto ausente de ciudadanos uniformados y extranjeros (UOCAVA)). Estos derechos incluyen el uso de una solicitud de tarjeta postal federal (FPCA) para registrarse para votar y solicitar una boleta anticipada, así como el uso de una boleta federal de escritura ausente (FWAB), que sirve como una boleta de respaldo de emergencia.

6. ¿Tengo que votar todo en mi boleta electoral?
No, los votantes no tienen que votar todo en su boleta electoral. Los votos emitidos seguirán contados. Sin embargo, animamos a los votantes a votar abajo de la balota como las razas locales, proposiciones, jueces, etc. pueden afectar la vida diaria de los votantes.
