Arizona GOP Sues Governor Hobbs Over Executive Orders on Voting

Lawsuit claims Hobbs exceeded her authority by designating state agencies as voter registration and ballot drop-off sites.

The lawsuit challenges two executive orders issued by Governor Katie Hobbs in November 2023.
Executive Order 23 and 25 designate state-run agencies as voting locations and voter registration assistance agencies.
Plaintiffs argue that these orders violate the Arizona Constitution and overstep the Legislature's authority.
The Arizona GOP seeks to block the enforcement of these orders and have them declared unconstitutional.
Governor Hobbs' office defends the orders as lawful measures to increase voter access.
