The proposed bill, if enacted, would amend the definitions of "political sign" in Arizona Revised Statutes sections 33-1261 and 33-1808. Currently, a "political sign" is defined as a sign that attempts to influence the outcome of an election. The bill would expand this definition to include "flags" and clarify that a political sign for a candidate is valid regardless of whether the individual is on the ballot for the next upcoming election, with the exception of candidates in a primary election who do not advance to the general election.

Additionally, the bill would make technical changes to the existing language and ensure that the updated definitions take effect on the general effective date. The changes aim to enhance the rights of residents in condominiums and planned communities regarding the display of political signs and flags, thereby reinforcing their ability to express political support or opposition on their private property.
