PHOENIX — A Superior Court judge has ordered the Arizona Secretary of State’s Office to release the names of about half of the Arizona voters who may have not provided proof of citizenship due to a decades-old data error.

These voters were incorrectly coded in a motor vehicle division database as having provided proof. As many as 218,000 voters could be affected.

The judge has ordered the Secretary of State to release the names of 98,000 of these voters to an Arizona group no later than noon on Monday.
