Permanent Early Voting List: Arizona now has a law that allows a voter to place their name on a "Permanent Early Voting List." This means that once a voter is on this list, for each election the voter qualified, the voter no longer has to request a mailed early ballot. Instead, an early ballot will automatically be mailed to the voter approximately 26 days prior to the specified election.
Having the ballot early allows time to review the ballot, study the issues, research the candidates and vote at one's convenience. All early ballots must be received in the office of the County Recorder, other officers in charge of elections, or deposited at any polling place in the county of residence, no later than 7:00 p.m. on Election Day.
In order to be included on the "Permanent Early Voting List", the voter must make a written request specifically asking their name be added to the permanent list. The request must include the voter's name, residence address, and mailing address within the county they reside (if different from the residence address), date of birth and their signature. Requests go to your county Recorder’s office.   http://www.azsos.gov/election/county.htm
