   A judge gave the state until Nov. 4 to release an original list of the   
   estimated 98,000 voters affected by a coding glitch.   
      
   MARICOPA COUNTY, Ariz. — The Arizona Secretary of State's Office has   
   been ordered by a judge to release a list of the thousands of voters   
   affected by a "glitch" in the state's registration system.   
      
   On Thursday, a Maricopa County Superior Court judge gave the secretary   
   until Nov. 4 to release an original list of the estimated 98,000 voters   
   affected by a coding glitch in the state's databases.   
      
   Earlier this year, state officials discovered that for the last 20 years   
   there was an error in Arizona's record-keeping system when it comes to   
   verifying a voter's citizenship. The issue affected a specific group of   
   residents who had been issued a driver's license before October 1996 and   
   registered to vote after February 2004.   
      
   Strong Communities Foundation of Arizona filed a public records request   
   last month for a complete list of the voters affected by the mishap. The   
   secretary of state said this request could not be completed before   
   Election Day, citing concerns for the safety of voters and the list's   
   accuracy.   
      
   Judge Scott Blaney ruled Secretary Adrian Fontes had "not established by   
   a preponderance of the evidence that production of the records would   
   violate rights of privacy or confidentiality."   
      
   The secretary's office was further ordered by the judge to release   
   datasets or communications generated in relation to the list of affected   
   voters.   
      
   The judge ordered the plaintiff to not contact any of the affected   
   voters and they may not release any personally identifiable information   
   of any affected voters to any other third parties before Nov. 6.   
      
   The Arizona Supreme Court has previously ruled that voters affected by   
   the registration issue could still complete a full ballot in the 2024   
   election.   
      
   Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer has said that "the vast majority   
   of these voters are United States citizens who can provide documented   
   proof of citizenship."   
      
   Everyone who registers to vote in Arizona must swear under the penalty   
   of perjury that they are a U.S. citizen.
