Arizona Court Upholds Prop. 140 Ballot Description
News summary

The Arizona Supreme Court upheld the Legislative Council’s description of Proposition 140, rejecting claims that it was biased and misleading. This measure proposes an open primary system where all candidates compete together, and voters can rank them if more than two advance to the general election. The court's decision overturned a lower court ruling and emphasized that the description is not designed to skew voters' perspectives. Critics argue that the description should have prioritized the changes to the primary system over the ranked-choice voting aspect. The ruling supports a move towards a more inclusive electoral process but raises concerns about how ballot descriptions could affect voter understanding. The decision comes as voters prepare for a critical election with multiple high-profile issues on the ballot.
