The resolution proposes an amendment to Article VII, Section 10 of the Arizona Constitution, which pertains to the state's primary election laws. The amendment aims to establish a direct primary election law that would allow for the nomination of candidates for all elective state, county, and city offices, including those for the United States Senate and House of Representatives. It also includes provisions for voters registered as no party preference or independent, allowing them to participate in the primary elections of any qualified political party.
If approved by voters and proclaimed by the Governor, this amendment would be submitted to the electorate during the next general election, as outlined in Article XXI of the Arizona Constitution. The resolution emphasizes the importance of inclusivity in the electoral process by enabling a broader range of voters to engage in primary elections, thereby enhancing democratic participation in the state's political landscape.
