Arizona News – Yavapai County Director of Elections, Laurin Custis, would like to notify voters of the following:
The vendor for the Elections Department has mailed sample ballots to the households of voters who are not on the Active Early Voter List in advance of the upcoming Presidential Preference Primary Election.
A printing error occurred during the vendor’s production process on 3,944 of the sample ballots.
Corrected sample ballots will be mailed to the 3,944 affected households not later than Tuesday, March 5, 2024.
If you do not receive a corrected sample ballot, then the initial sample ballot sent to your household does not contain the printing error.
Voters who are on the Active Early Voter List are not sent sample ballots.
Sample ballots cannot be used as an official ballot under any circumstances.
Sample ballots are available online at yavapaivotes.gov, click Sample Ballots.
Yavapai County takes the election process very seriously and when issues arise, we do everything we can, as quickly as possible, to resolve them. In this instance, the vendor we use made a printing error on 3,944 sample ballots. Upon discovering the error, we worked diligently with the vendor to determine the scope of the problem and to implement an action plan to correct it. In this case, corrected sample ballots will be mailed to each affected household by Tuesday March 5, 2024.
