Phoenix – Adrian Fontes has been reelected to serve as the Arizona Secretary of State for another term. As the office responsible for upholding Arizona election law, it is a victory for the voting rights of every single Arizonan to have a Secretary of State committed to protecting the legitimacy and transparency of elections.
“Arizona voters knew that their rights were on the line this election, and that the Secretary of State race was consequential to ensure future elections remain fair and free,” said Victoria López, Executive Director of the ACLU of Arizona. “Today’s results send a clear message: election denialism is not a winning strategy, especially when Arizonan’s voting rights are at stake.”
This election cycle, the American Civil Liberties Union launched a $500,000 voter education campaign in partnership with the ACLU of Arizona to inform voters of the civil rights and liberties, including voting rights, that were on their ballot.
