The date of the general election in Arizona is set by the state's constitution.

Article 7, Section 11 of the Arizona State Constitution has clear rules on when the general election should be held. Per the section:

"There shall be a general election of representatives in congress, and of state, county, and precinct officers on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November of the first even numbered year after the year in which Arizona is admitted to statehood and biennially thereafter."

The first Monday of November falls on Nov. 2 in 2026.

Can I still register to vote in November?
