Arizona's 2-page ballots could make for long lines on Election Day

[RandySF]

PHOENIX -- Arizona election officials are warning there could be delays at polling places and vote-counting machines could jam as voters fill out a multipage ballot, an unusual occurrence in the presidential battleground state.

The majority of Arizona voters will receive a two-page ballot that is printed on both sides, marking the first time in nearly two decades that ballots in the state's most populous county have been longer than a single page.

Officials in Maricopa County, which includes Phoenix, say nine of the state’s 15 counties are ditching single-sheet ballots this year in favor of newly designed 17-inch paper ballots. They will vary slightly by county because of the number of local races but will include an average of 79 contests for local, state and federal offices, as well as statewide ballot propositions.

While many other states routinely deal with multipage ballots without issue, any change in voting in Arizona makes for fertile ground for legal challenges and the spread of election conspiracy theories.

4. Sounds like AZ Republicans screwed themselves.

They added all of those ballot measures forgetting that their people vote on election day.

3. Good grief. Florida had 17 amendments a few elections ago. We survived. I'm thinking it was a three pager.

I’m sure Arizonans are smart enough to vote on both sides.
