A new poll by The Tarrance Group, a notable Virginia-based corporate and political research group, reveals that although Arizona voters have confidence in certain aspects of local elections, there remain lingering concerns stemming from misinformation about the 2020 election.
Late last month, the group surveyed likely Arizona voters on prominent issues this election cycle including the Governor and Secretary of State races and Proposition 144, the Voter Identification and Citizenship Voting Requirements Amendment, which is polling at 58% in favor, 42% against, and 1% undecided.
Overall, Arizona voters are more confident in the 2024 election results compared to 2020. Similarly, Arizona voters have more confidence heading into the 2026 General Election. Yet, Arizona voters are concerned about several threats to election integrity, including ballots being cast by non-citizens, foreign interference, and federal pressure.
