The Arizona Voter Registration Monitoring and Database Access Referendum was not on the ballot in Arizona as a veto referendum on November 8, 2022.

The veto referendum would have repealed Sections 4, 5, 21, 25, and 33 of Senate Bill 1819 (SB 1819), which were designed to allow the legislature and attorney general to give access to the voter registration database to certain entities, require county recorders to file voter registration information with the legislature, and require stamps and codes on ballots, among other changes.[1]
