Supreme Court Permits Arizona Proof of Citizenship Law to Register to Vote, but Not for Mail-In Voting

WASHINGTON, DC – Arizona can continue requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote while legal challenges continue in court, but once registered, people can still vote in presidential elections or vote by mail without such proof, a fractured Supreme Court ruled on Thursday.

Election law in Arizona has required proof of citizenship since 2004. A divided Supreme Court held in 2013 that a federal law allowing people to register to vote with a federal form that does not require citizenship proof overrides state law, including Arizona’s. Since then, registrants using a standard registration form must present proof, but applicants who know about the federal option can still go that route and avoid proving that they are American citizens.

Then lawmakers in the Grand Canyon State passed an election integrity law in 2022. Among other things, that statute provided that no one in Arizona can vote in presidential elections or vote by mail without proof of citizenship. Allies of the Democrat Party sued in their relentless push to expand mail-in voting and early voting, and a lower court judge blocked Arizona’s law.

Democrats already have their mail in ballots filled out for the illegal aliens in Oregon. I assume they’re doing the same in other states. They need to ban mail in ballots except for deployed members of the military.

Okay so the rules are you can cheat all you want with the mail in ballots.

The Republicans should get their manufacturing mail in votes intihigh gear.

I bet when the all votes are counted there will be more mail in votes in Arizona than people that actually live in Arizona.

Barrett is a real genius…. (sarcasm off)

Whoever strongly suggested her should never ever be listened to again. She seems to vote with the leftists on the court often.

Barrett is a "sensible suburban mom" who does everything for "the children". She
doesn't care if the Constitution is ripped to shreds as long as it is "for the children".

The first warning sign about Li'l Amy was her trendy rainbow look-at-me "designer" fambley.

I vote by dropping off my ballot at drop box which is next to the library and police department. Then I get email from my county that my ballot was received.

Hopefully nobody down at the polls swapped your ballot for a pre-filled Democratic ballot prior to scanning it.

Absolutely correct.

It’s a girl thing. Barrett sees how incompetent and stupid the other females of the court are, so she votes their way to make them feel better.
