The resolution SCR1011 proposes an amendment to the Arizona Constitution regarding voting qualifications and methods. It seeks to constitutionally prohibit individuals from voting for more candidates than there are offices available, ensuring that each vote is the sole determinant of election outcomes as mandated by federal or state law. Additionally, it outlines the qualifications necessary to vote in Arizona, which include being a U.S. citizen, at least 18 years old, and a qualified registered voter as defined by existing laws.
If approved by voters, the amendment will be submitted by the Secretary of State during the next general election and will take effect upon proclamation by the Governor. The resolution emphasizes the importance of maintaining the secrecy of the voting process and aligns with the existing constitutional framework that governs public elections in Arizona. There is no anticipated fiscal impact on the state General Fund associated with this legislation.
