Why we checked itA specific claim about an ongoing county-level technology project used as evidence that system updates are feasible without state funding; verifiable against Maricopa County records.
What we foundThe factual core of the claim is supported: Maricopa County has been developing its own proprietary voter registration system (ERO) using county resources and in-house staff, independent of the state's AVID system. However, the specific characterization that this is being done 'without the benefit of the state budget' cannot be fully confirmed from available primary sources.
