Arizona Supreme Court

Leibsohn v. hobbs/voters Right to Know

September 20, 2022517 P.3d 45

Summary

The Arizona Supreme Court affirmed the trial court's refusal to disqualify signatures supporting the Voters' Right to Know initiative. It held that a circulator's residence address need not include a unit number, but that a separate affidavit is required for each initiative petition. Although some circulators failed to provide separate affidavits, disqualification was unconstitutional as applied because the Secretary of State's registration system made compliance impossible. The court also denied both parties' attorney-fee requests.
