Arizona Supreme Court

Gary Griffith, Plaintiff/appellant v. R. Rene Baca, an Individual, Real Party in Interest; Judy Dickerson

August 17, 2010225 Ariz. 245

Summary

The court affirmed the superior court’s rejection of Griffith’s challenge to Baca’s candidacy for justice of the peace. It held that Baca validly changed his voter-registration address when he corrected the signed form in the recorder’s presence and that his prior early vote in another precinct did not prevent him from registering in the precinct where he resided and sought office. The prior vote only barred him from voting a second time in the same election.
