from The National Pulse:
Arizona’s Secretary of State has announced the discovery of an additional 120,000 registered voters who lack documentary proof of citizenship, bringing the total to 218,000. The extensive error is attributed to data coding issues involving driver’s license information between the Arizona Department of Transportation’s Motor Vehicle Division and the state voter registration databases.
The massive voter registration error was first identified last month when approximately 97,000 voters were found to be listed as full-ballot voters without providing the required citizenship documentation for state elections. Arizona requires those registering to vote in state-level elections to provide documentary proof of citizenship (DPOC). Consequently, if a voter cannot provide the required information, they’re designated as only being allowed to cast a federal election ballot.

According to the state investigation into the database issue, approximately 79,000 registered Republicans and 61,000 Democrats are impacted. An additional 76,000 voters who are registered under other political parties are also affected.
Adrian Fontes, Arizona’s Democratic Secretary of State, stressed that the individuals impacted “have lived in the state for decades and have attested under penalty of perjury that they are U.S. citizens.” According to the Secretary of State’s office, those affected can still participate in November’s elections with full-ballot rights—citing a recent Arizona Supreme Court ruling on the matter. Both Fontes and the Arizona Republican Party urged the court to stop an effort by Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer to restrict the voters to federal-only ballots.
In response, Arizona Republican Party Chair Gina Swoboda criticized the handling of the situation, accusing Fontes of misleading the public and failing to fulfill his duties. She demands transparency and immediate disclosure of the affected voter data to all county recorders.
