automatic voter registration.

SB 1194 automatically registers eligible Arizona residents to vote when they apply for or renew a driver's license or nonoperating ID card at a Department of Transportation office. It affects all applicants who meet voting eligibility requirements (citizenship, age, residency) by adding a simple registration step during license processing, with a 21-day window to opt out. Key provisions include electronic transfer of minimal registration data (name, address, date of birth) from DMV to county recorders, mandatory citizenship attestations under penalty of perjury, and confidentiality protections for registration status. The bill takes effect in 2025, streamlining voter registration without altering voting eligibility or requirements.
