The proposed bill introduces a secure automatic electronic voter registration system in Arizona, allowing individuals to register to vote when applying for or updating their driver's license or ID, provided they prove U.S. citizenship. It removes the requirement for documentation of citizenship when individuals change their address or name and establishes on-site voter registration on election day. The bill also mandates that government agencies accept nontraditional residential addresses and digital signatures, enhancing accessibility and efficiency in the voter registration process.

Additionally, the bill updates campaign finance laws by maintaining a $100 limit on individual contributions while removing specific caps on early contributions for gubernatorial candidates, allowing them to be capped at 10% of total spending limits. It introduces a framework for supplemental funding grants for candidates based on qualifying contributions and includes a voluntary $5 check-off on state income tax returns to support the clean elections fund. Overall, the bill aims to streamline voter registration, enhance election participation, and improve campaign financing transparency and accountability.
