Maricop region in Arizona has a problem. 98 000 people have no confirmed citizenship

Maricopa region registry Office reported in a message to Fox News that it had not received a full list of persons possibly under supervision of MVD data from the Secretary of State Office.

However, if the voters afraid have submitted a fresh registration form for voters after an oversight has been detected, they have appeared in our strategy as persons who must supply the DPOC after processing the fresh registration form. These voters were contacted individually to inform them that their registration was incomplete. However, after further consideration, it was decided to full reconstruct unregistered position to these voters only if they were previously existing registered voters.

The registry office reported that voters would be able to participate in the upcoming elections unchanged. The message of the Office besides explains that around 2000 persons afraid by the supervision of MVD data updated their electoral data and any managed to make contact to supply additional documents. The Authority confirmed that all these voters were restored to their first electoral position regardless of the provision of additional information.

A suit against the county

Last Thursday, the Arizona ultimate Court ordered the region to hand over a conservative control group a list of registered foreigners, after a suit against the region last year was filed. The court papers indicate that Arizona State Secretary, Adrian Fontes, testified during the proceeding that the strategy problem had affected about 28,000 registered voters.

The order stressed that Fontes admitted to having a partial list of about 98,000 voters who did not confirm their citizenship, but stated that he did not have a full list of all 218,000 affected voters. Fontes explained that the mention of the full letter in the government press release was due to the hasty and imprecise language. He besides added that the Department of Mechanical Vehicles (MVD) did not supply him with any information about additional voters who may have lacked adequate documentation.

However, the court found his evidence inconsistent as Fontes initially denied having a list of 98,000 voters, and then changed his position. According to the position of the Office of the Secretary of State of Arizona, the suit stated that by April 2024 more than 35,000 registered voters in Arizona had not provided proof of citizenship, which limited their ability to vote only in national elections.
