The Arizona Secretary of State's Office has been ordered by a judge to release a list of the thousands of voters affected by a "glitch" in the state's registration system. On Thursday, a Maricopa County Superior Court judge gave the secretary until Nov. 4 to release an original list of the estimated 98,000 voters affected by a coding glitch in the state's databases. Earlier this year, state officials discovered that for the last 20 years there was an error in Arizona's record-keeping system when it comes to verifying a voter's citizenship. The issue affected a specific group of residents who had been issued a driver's license before October 1996 and registered to vote after February 2004. |
