Driver License Signature for Voter Registration

This bill would update Arizona’s voter registration process through the Motor Vehicle Division (MVD). When someone registers or renews their voter registration while getting or renewing a driver license, the MVD must send a copy of the applicant’s handwritten signature to election officials within five days. The Secretary of State then forwards this signature to the appropriate county recorder. This ensures counties have an official signature on file to verify early ballot signatures and help prevent fraud. The bill also requires applicants to receive information about eligibility, penalties for false registration, and confidentiality policies.
