Arizona Voter Registration Drives Going into Home Stretch

Vote Buttons Election Stock Spotlight

Arizona election officials will mail early ballots in two weeks, so voting advocates are rushing to get people registered.

Teams are on the University of Arizona campus, at local farmers markets, and even in area high schools. One group is specifically targeting the Tohono O’odham Nation.

Elliott Bustamante graduated from high school in 2015. Now he is on his home reservation trying to convince people to register to voter.

“It’s a little bit of a harder thing to do out on the reservation because we are so isolated,” said Bustamante.

He said he hopes to register high school seniors and older adults.

The last day to register to vote in the general election is Oct. 10.
