Three out of 15 wouldn’t normally be considered a high rate of success, but it counts for a lot when it’s three counties that make up nearly 78 percent of Arizona’s registered voters.
Secretary of State Michele Reagan has not granted a request by a coalition of civil and voting rights groups that asked her to instruct all county recorders to attempt to verify any early ballot that’s rejected on Election Day because the voter’s signature doesn’t match the one on file. And most of Arizona’s 15 county elections offices hasn’t moved to adopt such a policy.
Nonetheless, the coalition has not brought the lawsuit it threatened, and with the polls set to open in less than 24 hours, it’s too late to go to court.
