general elections; required tally

SCR 1030 proposes an Arizona constitutional amendment requiring that 95% of votes cast in every general election be tallied within 24 hours of election day. If approved by voters, it would mandate the legislature to create laws and procedures ensuring this rapid tallying process for all state, county, and precinct elections. This amendment directly affects election officials and the statewide election process, but does not change election dates or voting methods. The bill passed the Arizona Senate and is now moving through the House for potential voter approval in the next general election.
