The proposed bill amends Section 16-332 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which pertains to the nominating procedures for justices of the supreme court or judges of the court of appeals. The amendment updates the year format from "19___" to "20___" to reflect the current century. Additionally, it makes minor language changes for clarity, such as replacing "shall" with "has" and "which" with "that" to improve the readability and precision of the legal text. The bill maintains the requirement that each office up for election is to be designated by a distinguishing number and that this designation is to be used consistently throughout the election process, losing its significance after the election and the issuance of the certificate of election.
