Update on Judicial Retention Information for Maricopa County Superior Court

Please note, the Secretary of State's office recently received information that Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Hugh Hegyi is retiring and did not file paperwork to be retained in office.   The Publicity Pamphlet went to print before Judge Hegyi's retirement decision was made public.  Thus, Maricopa County voters should not expect to see Judge Hegyi on their retention ballot despite his appearance in the Publicity Pamphlet.

Ballot Measure Town Halls

Arizona’s voters are invited to attend a Town Hall meeting on the statewide ballot propositions. Per Arizona law, the Secretary of State’s Office will conduct a series of Town Hall meetings around the state to educate the public about the General Election ballot propositions. The meetings are free and open to the public. If you want to learn more about the statewide ballot measures, please consider attending a Town Hall in your area.

publicity pamphlet requests

Households with at least one registered voter are entitled to receive the Secretary of State’s publicity pamphlet in early October, which will provide useful information about the statewide ballot measures that will appear on your General Election ballot. However, because the mailing list for these millions of voters must be finalized several weeks in advance of the election, any persons who register to vote after the list was finalized on August 10, 2018 (or any existing voter who opted into electronic pamphlet delivery after August 14, 2018) must contact the Secretary of State’s Office to be added to our supplemental mailing list. Voters may request a publicity pamphlet up until Election Day, but should provide the Secretary of State’s Office as much notice as possible to ensure we can provide the pamphlet in a timely fashion.  

To request the 2018 General Election publicity pamphlet be mailed to you, please call the Secretary of State’s Office at 602-542-8683 or complete the following online request form.   (Please note, to permanently receive the publicity pamphlet by email in future election cycles you must update your voter registration record through www.servicearizona.com and opt into electronic pamphlet delivery).  Voters who were registered to vote prior to August 10, 2018 are already on the mailing list and need not request a publicity pamphlet.
