2014 What's on My Ballot? Arizona's General Election Guide (Ballot Propositions & Judicial Performance Review)

A Message to Arizona Voters

Dear Arizona Voter:

Important choices lie ahead. That's why we prepared Arizona's General Election Guide. This year Arizona will be conducting our General Election on November 4 , and we hope this pamphlet is a helpful tool for your use.

The pamphlet is divided into three parts:

(1) General information about voting (Pages 6-11).

(2) Information about each proposition that will appear on the ballot, including the actual language of the measure followed by a description of what the measure does and arguments for and against the measure filed by members of the public (Pages 19-41).

(3) A judicial performance review, provided by the Arizona Commission on Judicial Performance Review, to assist you in reviewing the judges who will be on the ballot (Pages 43-69).

Please keep the following important dates in mind:

• Voter Registration Deadline if you are not already registered to vote: October 6 . For information about your registration, please call your County Recorder’s office. A list of contact information for each County Recorder can be found on page 12.
• Early Voting: October 9 - October 24. This is the period when early ballots are mailed to registered voters who request one. Contact your County Recorder to receive a ballot in the mail, or to request that your name be placed on the Permanent Early Voting List.
• Election Day: November 4 . Polling places will be open from 6 a.m. - 7 p.m.

If you are either in the military or an Arizona voter living overseas, you can find important voting information on page 7.

Some local governments will also be holding elections on November 4. State and local elections will be combined on one ballot. Contact your County Elections Department for information about local elections or visit the Secretary of State’s website - www.azsos.gov - if you have any questions.

Thank you for taking the time to inform yourself and participate in this important Election.

Sincerely,

Ken Bennett

Arizona Secretary of State
