PHOENIX — Arizona’s voter registration numbers were down by nearly 11,500
since the last report in January.
The Secretary of State’s Office said
the state has more than 3.23 million
registered voters as of April 1.
Arizona Secretary of State Michele Reagan said it’s not unusual to see a slight
decrease in active voter registration during non-election years.
Her office said 36 percent of current registered voters around Arizona are
Republicans, 28 percent are Democrats and 36 percent are independents or have
not designated a party preference.
Libertarians and members of the Green party make up a little less than one
percent of the state’s total registration.
The Americans Elect Party has enrolled 459 voters since joining the state’s
other recognized political parties in 2011.
