Ninth Circuit to decide constitutionality of new Arizona voter registration law

A Ninth Circuit panel took up the question Tuesday of whether Arizona can enforce a law that advocacy groups say will disenfranchise Arizona voters. SB1260, signed into law in June, would require county recorders to cancel a voter’s registration and remove them from the state’s permanent vote-by-mail list if they’re registered to vote in a different county. It also would make it a felony to “provide a mechanism for voting to another person who is registered in another state,” regardless of if that person now lives in Arizona and intends to vote only in Arizona.
