precinct committeemen; proxy voting

HB 2424 would allow Arizona political parties to permit proxy voting at their committee meetings under specific rules. It requires that state committee members grant proxies only to county voters, county committee members only to precinct voters, and in precincts with two or fewer committeemen, a committeeman may appoint a voter from an adjoining precinct to vote at county committee meetings. Proxies would be valid only for the duration of the meeting and must be notarized or witnessed by two people. This bill directly affects political party committee members and qualified voters who might serve as proxies.
