The Arizona Secretary of State’s Office has selected the awardees for the 2022 Online Voter Registration Unique URL Program. All three state-recognized parties, the Arizona Democratic Party, the Arizona Libertarian Party and the Arizona Republican Party, will get a Unique URL to carry out voter registrations during the 2022 Election Cycle. 

Other organizations will get a Unique URL to carry out voter registrations for the 2022 Election Cycle including the Arizona Center for Disability Law’s Protection and Advocacy for Voter Access Program, The Arizona Students' Association, Chicanos por la Causa, The Civics Center, Equality Arizona Foundation, Inspire2Vote - Project High Hopes, Mi Familia Vota Education Fund, One Arizona, Phoenix Indian Center and Rock the Vote. 

“Part of our job as election officials involves working with our partners to ensure that we promote voter participation” Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs said. 

Hobbs also took the time to thank all involved. 

“We want to thank all three state-recognized political parties, as well as the selected organizations for their interest in this project" Hobbs said in a press release. "As demonstrated through the Unique URL Pilot Program in 2020, this is a proven method to facilitate accurate and secure voter registration drives during this critical time."

A statement from the Arizona Secretary of State's office explained the process in further detail.

"The awardees will receive a unique URL for their organizations so they can conduct voter registration drives electronically and securely" the statement said.
