Voter Identification and Citizenship Voting Requirements Amendment
Voter Identification and Citizenship Voting Requirements Amendment
Arizona · November 3, 2026
What this measure does
Make a number of changes to the state's election laws, including specifying that only citizens may vote in any Arizona election and requiring voters to show a government-issued ID to cast a ballot
A yes vote means
Arizona voters must show a government-issued ID to cast a ballot, and the citizenship voting requirement is written into the state constitution.
A no vote means
Arizona's election laws stay as they are now, without these specific ID and constitutional citizenship requirements.
Simple explanation
Right now, Arizona law already says only citizens can vote, but this measure makes that extra clear in the state constitution. It also means you'd need to show a government-issued ID (like a driver's license) when you vote in person, similar to how you might show ID to buy certain items at a store.
