Arizona County Election Offices: Addresses & Contacts

County Recorder or Elections Department: who handles your question?

Arizona election administration is local by design. Picking the right office first can save a transfer, a missed deadline or a trip to the wrong building.

Arizona county election offices: addresses, phones and official websites

Every Arizona county is listed below. Recorder details are shown first because that office is usually the starting point for voter registration and early voting.

Physical addresses are intended for office location reference. Mailing addresses can be different, especially for absentee/UOCAVA forms, so use the linked county site or the Secretary of State’s official county contact directory before sending documents.

What services can a county election office help with?

The two-office split makes more sense when you match your task to the part of the election process that owns it.

Registration and voter records

County Recorders maintain voter-registration records. If you register by paper, the completed form is generally mailed to your County Recorder. You can also register online through Arizona’s MVD voter-registration service if you have a qualifying Arizona driver license or non-operating ID.

After a successful registration, Arizona says a voter-registration card is generally mailed within about four to six weeks. If it never arrives, your county recorder is the place to check whether the application was received and processed.

Early voting and ballot-by-mail

Recorders are central to early voting and ballot-by-mail administration. They can help with one-time ballot requests, Active Early Voting List questions, temporary mailing addresses, replacement ballots and ballot status. The exact local process may differ by county, especially for online request tools.

Voting locations and Election Day operations

County Elections Departments publish polling places or vote centers, manage Election Day operations and often recruit poll workers. Arizona counties do not all use exactly the same voting-location model, so do not assume you can vote at any location unless your county says it uses vote centers for that election.

Tabulation, canvass and local results

County election officials administer counting and local canvass procedures, while the Secretary of State handles statewide responsibilities and the official statewide canvass. For the November 3, 2026 general election, counties have a Board of Supervisors canvass deadline before the statewide canvass on November 23.

Which county office handles a missing, damaged or traveling ballot?

If a ballot-by-mail is lost or damaged, Arizona directs voters to the County Recorder. A replacement ballot-by-mail request must be made by the applicable deadline; for the November 3, 2026 general election, the standard mail-request deadline is October 23.

1. Check the ballot status first.Use my.arizona.vote. Maricopa and Pima voters may also have county-specific tracking tools.
2. Call the Recorder if the ballot is missing or damaged.Explain whether you never received it, damaged it, lost it, or need it sent somewhere else.
3. If you are traveling, request a temporary mailing address.Official Election Mail is not automatically forwarded by USPS. Contact your County Recorder directly.
4. Do not vote two ballots.If the county issues a replacement, the prior ballot is cancelled under the county’s process.
5. If mail timing is too tight, ask about in-person options.Arizona guidance notes that voters may visit a voting location on or before Election Day; use the official voter portal to find the correct location.

Moved recently? Update the county voter record before relying on an old card

Arizona registration is tied to your residence and county. If you moved, your County Recorder is the local office responsible for updating the record.

Online registration or updates are available through AZMVDNow for eligible voters with an Arizona driver license or non-operating identification card. A paper voter-registration form remains available if you cannot use the online route.

If you do not have a traditional residence address, Arizona provides a separate No Residence Address Confirmation form. Address Confidentiality Program participants should register through the ACP process rather than ordinary public registration channels.

Polling place or vote center: use your county’s current location tool

Arizona voters can start with my.arizona.vote to locate voting information. Maricopa and Pima maintain additional county-specific tools and location information.

On Election Day, qualified voters must show acceptable identification before receiving a ballot. County Elections Departments are the best local source for where to vote, accessibility, wait-time information where offered, emergency changes and local vote-center rules.

Do not assume an early-voting site is also open on Election Day, or that a drop box accepts in-person voting. The address list in this article is an office directory, not a list of polling places.

FPCA and FWAB submissions still depend on the county office

Arizona’s official county directory publishes separate FPCA/FWAB submission details for each county. Military members, eligible family members and overseas citizens should use the current county address, fax or email instructions provided by the Secretary of State or county recorder.

The 2026 general-election UOCAVA timeline begins September 19. Because military and overseas rules include earlier ballot transmission and special federal forms, use FVAP together with the Arizona Secretary of State and your county recorder rather than applying ordinary domestic mail guidance.

Need election records, results or administrative information?

County election offices can also be important for journalists, attorneys, campaigns and researchers. The right destination depends on the record: voter-registration administration typically belongs with the Recorder, while election operations, polling-place records, tabulation procedures and election-day administration may sit with the Elections Department or another county office.

For statewide election data, historical results, statewide canvasses, election manuals and statewide legal guidance, use the Arizona Secretary of State Elections Division. When requesting records, identify the election, county, date range and record type so staff can route the request accurately.

Do not send sensitive personal information to a general email address unless the official office specifically instructs you to do so.

Arizona election office map: statewide help plus county directions

Arizona has 15 county recorder offices and multiple separate elections facilities, so one pin cannot honestly represent the full directory. The map below shows the statewide Elections Division; every county card above includes its own verified-address directions link.

Official sources and editorial references

The county directory is based primarily on the Arizona Secretary of State County Election Contact Information, which lists voter-registration/early-voting and election-location contacts for all 15 counties.

For 2026 dates, use the state’s official election calendar and 2026 Election Information. For voter services, use My Arizona Vote and the Secretary of State’s registration guidance.
