What is the Primary Election on July 21?
Each recognized political party holds a primary election to nominate candidates. The candidates that win the nomination in the primary election advance to the general election. Arizona has an open primary, which allows voters registered as independent (no party) to participate by designating to their County Recorder which partisan ballot they would like to receive.
Independent Voters
Arizona has an open primary, which means all registered voters can participate in the election, including independents. Independent voters can vote early by contacting their County Recorder with their preferred party ballot by July 10 (Note: Independents on the AEVL must tell their County Recorder which ballot to send them if they wish to vote early). Independent voters can also visit their voting location and choose their preferred party ballot on Election Day. For more information, click the button below or see the FAQ's.
