Polling hours in Arizona
On Election Day, polling places in Arizona open at 6 a.m. and close at 7 p.m. If you’re in line by 7 p.m., you’ll be allowed to cast your vote, even if it takes additional time to reach the voting booth.
What to bring to vote in Arizona
In Arizona, you are required to show a valid photo ID to vote. Acceptable forms of ID include:
Make sure your ID is current and not expired, as this is required for it to be accepted.
If you don’t have an acceptable ID, you can obtain a free photo voter ID card from your local county Board of Registrars office or a mobile ID unit. It’s a good idea to check that you have the necessary ID ahead of Election Day to avoid any last-minute issues at the polls.
Expected wait times and tips for a smooth voting experience
Line lengths can vary depending on the time of day and the location. Here’s a general guide:
Early Morning (6 a.m. - 10 a.m.): Many people vote early, so lines can be longer right when polling places open. If you can, avoid the 6 a.m. - 8 a.m. slot.
Midday (10 a.m. - 3 p.m.): Lines are often shorter, as this period sees fewer voters. If you have a flexible schedule, this is usually the best time to avoid long waits. That said, there is usually an increase between 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. so if you can avoid that two hour slot.
Late Afternoon and Evening (3 p.m. - 7 p.m.): Crowds tend to increase as people leave work, so lines can grow longer as polling places near closing. 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. is usually the busiest.
