This bill proposes significant updates to current statutes regarding voter registration rolls in Arizona. It mandates that county recorders provide public access to voter registration rolls through an internet portal, allowing users to download the information without any associated fees. The bill also specifies that the information must be in a read-only format and prohibits its use for commercial purposes. Additionally, it removes existing procedures for requesting precinct lists and the requirement for the Secretary of State to establish a uniform format for these lists, thereby streamlining access to voter registration data.

Furthermore, the bill repeals various restrictions on the public inspection of voter registration records, including the prohibition on releasing certain personal information such as email addresses and the month and day of birth. It also eliminates the ability of county recorders and other election officials to charge fees for providing additional copies of precinct lists. Overall, the proposed changes aim to enhance transparency and accessibility of voter registration information while ensuring that the data is used solely for authorized purposes related to political activities and elections.
