Arizona, Utah Lawmakers Push Election Law Changes

News summary

Republican lawmakers in Arizona are advocating for a higher threshold for constitutional amendments, requiring 60% voter approval instead of a simple majority, arguing it is necessary to protect the state constitution. Democrats claim this move would undermine grassroots efforts and benefit well-funded interest groups. Meanwhile, in Utah, a new bill awaiting Governor Spencer Cox's signature would significantly alter the vote-by-mail system, requiring voters to opt-in and include personal identification details on ballots. The bill also mandates that ballots be received by Election Day, a shift from the current postmark requirement. Despite no evidence of widespread election fraud, these changes aim to restore public trust in elections. Critics, including some county clerks, express concerns about the challenges these changes pose to voters and the potential for increased errors.
