The County Recorder must notify a voter by forwardable mail that their registration has been canceled, reason for cancellation, qualifications of voters and instructions on registering to vote if qualified. Voter registrations canceled by the County Recorder must be maintained on the inactive voter list for four years following the cancellation date (A.R.S. §§ 16-165, 16-166).
