County Board of Supervisors and Recorder’s Office, we help residents in the nation’s
fastest growing county exercise their right to vote by administering elections for cities,
towns, school districts and special districts. Stay informed. Make a Plan. Vote.
Notice: Due to the “Stay Home, Stay Healthy, Stay Connected” Executive Order by Arizona Governor Doug Ducey, the Maricopa County Elections Department is closing front counter services in Phoenix and Mesa until further notice.
Candidates filing for public office may still make an appointment for in-person acceptance of filings at our MCTEC office only. The Mesa office, located at 222 E. Javelina, is closed except to accept candidate filings on Monday, April 6 from 1-5 p.m.
