"I appreciate the effort to address some of the issues," he said. "I'm not sure yet that this is the solution, but a solution eeds to be found." He said he'd like to see additional re- uirements about where polling sites ust be located, particularly to make ure there are adequate sites in lower-income areas where transportation may be more of an issue. The bill still needs final votes in the Senate and in the House before it goes to the governor. It can continue to be amended in this process. The Arizona Legislature is proposing hanges to election law intended to prevent a repeat of the problems visited on oters during the presidential prefer- nce election.

en. Kimberly Yee, R-Phoenix, who waited in line for more than five hours to vote in the March 22 preference election, proposes new regulations that would: Require Maricopa County to provide at least one polling place for every 1,700 "active registered voters" for the presidential preference election. It defines active registered voters as those who are not on the permanent early-voting list a nd are eligible to vote in the presidential preference election as of Jan. 1. Allow a county recorder or officer i charge of the election to designate mergency polling places for presidential preference elections.

Allow individuals to electioneer and engage in political activity, including posting signs outside a 75-foot limit, at facilities used as a polling place or voting center except those used in an emer- gency. Emergency locations do not have to allow electioneering or political activity on their property. The proposals are part of an amend- ent to House Bill 2017. "This amendment would require residential preference elections and pecial elections in Maricopa County to ave a minimum of 200 polling places," Yee said. "It would not apply to the special election in May, but they are shooting for as close to 120 as possible." Sen.

Martin Quezada, D-Phoenix, said he's opposing the amendment at this point, but is interested in working with Legislation requires 200 polling places ALIA BEARD RAU THE REPUBLIC AZCENTRAL.COM Obituary.
