Yavapai County Recorder, Michelle Burchill would like to remind voters about important information regarding the upcoming Presidential Preference Election that will be held March 19, 2024.
- The PPE is a Statewide Political Party Election where voters who are affiliated with those party’s will choose who they would like their party to nominate as a Presidential candidate in the General Election.
- Only the Republican and Democrat Parties have chosen to participate in this election.
- The provision for an open primary does not apply to the PPE. This means that only voters registered to the specific participating party may vote on that party’s ballot.
- Only registered Democrats or Republicans may vote in the 2024 PPE.
- Voters registered as Independents, Libertarians, No Labels or Other, may change their party affiliation by the registration deadline to vote in the PPE. After the PPE, they can re-register to their original party.
