Now, people can register as \u201cfederal only\u201d voters without providing proof of citizenship, but Arizona requires additional proof for state and local election participation.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=18657\">3 firefighters killed, nearly 40,000 acres consumed as wildfires scorch western Colorado<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Supreme Court says it will consider Arizona voting laws that impose proof of citizenship requirements for voter registration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18661,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[43,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18662","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-based-on-facts-either-observed-and-verified-directly-by-the-reporter-or-reported-and-verified-from-knowledgeable-sources","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
