The Arizona Senate passed a bill that would require voters that want to submit late mail-in ballots to also present an ID at their polling place or at the County Recorder’s Office. To ensure their ballot counts, it must be submitted this way by the Friday before Election Day.

Priya Sundareshan, a Democrat, says the bill would only make it harder to vote.

“That is just adding hurdles upon hurdles to people to have their ballots count,” said Sundareshan. “That’s not the way we need to be going. We need to be making it easier to vote, not harder to vote.”

Republican J.D. Mesnard is the bill’s sponsor. He says it would not make voting more difficult but instead would treat early voters more like Election Day voters.

The bill now heads to the House.
