Arizona has open primaries. Any registered voter can participate in primary elections, regardless of political party. For a Presidential Preference Election (PPE), only voters registered with a participating party can vote as Arizona does not classify a PPE as a primary election. For primaries, registered independent voters may choose one party's primary ballot to vote on and will remain independent for future elections. Voters enrolled with a party must vote in their party’s primary.17-year-olds cannot vote in the primary election even if they will be 18 by the corresponding general election.

List #3: If you don’t have two documents from List #2, you can show:

If you go to your polling place without an approved form of ID, you can vote using a conditional provisional ballot.

Alternatively, you have up to five business days after a general election and three business days after any other election to provide your identification to your county elections office.
