The Arizona Secretary of State recently posted registration data as of July 2023. The percentages: Republican 34.42%; Democratic 30.02%; Libertarian .80%; No Labels .20%; independent and other (including Green) 34.55%.
In October 2022 the percentages were: Republican 34.67%; Democratic 30.66%; Libertarian .78%; independent and other 33.89%.
Here are the figures. The No Labels total for July 2023 is 8,505. By contrast, at the April 2023 tally, No Labels only had 17 members. Thanks to Richard Grayson for the news about the new tally.
I’m guessing they either paid the people who gathered signatures extra if they registered voters or it’s already on the form and confusing voters who think that they are registering without a party.
If it’s not on the printed forms yet, does Arizona have electronic voter registration and if so is it on the website form as a party choice?
NO PURGE LISTS OF PUBLIC PARTY REGISTRATIONS
NO PRIMARIES

Do you imagine you’re convincing someone by repeating it a million times?
@Marc,
Arizona law requires that any interaction with the government be possible to be done electronically.
Candidate petitions can also be signed online.
Glad to see the Libertarian Party continue to grow in Arizona.
Jim Riley, that might explain the rapid growth of the “no labels” party. Not because they have a lot of actual supporters, but because people register with them thinking they are registering without a party.
It’s kind of like the American Independent party in California. Maybe 5% of the people who register with them do so because they know what the party stands for and like it. The rest mostly don’t even know it even is a party at all, much less what it stands for. It may even be more lopsided than that especially if you don’t count the rapidly dying off George Wallace supporters from 1967-8 who registered with them to help get him on the ballot and never changed it since then.
I am guessing a bunch of confused people registered to vote under the No Labels Party banner thinking they were registering as independents/non-partisans.
George Whitfield – the Libertarian Party is not growing in Arizona. It had 38,385 (0.90%) registered voters at GE 2020. It is down to 33,738 (0.80%).
There are a lot of states which have peaked in LP voter registrations and are now in decline. The possibility exists that 2024 could have the first nationwide contraction in Libertarian registrations since 2006.
Just for comparison, the Arizona Green Party never achieved the number of registrations that No Labels already has. The Greens (no longer a recognized party, not since before the 2020 election) used to have 4,000 to maybe 6,500 voters. Americans Elect never had more than a few hundred in 2012. No Labels has, as mentioned here, quite a bit more after only three months.

Caveat Elector; let the voter beware.
it is the responsibility of the voter to understand the consequences of registering with a party label.
Caveat or no caveat, it’s obviously why their numbers are growing so fast.
HOW MANY COMMIES/FASCISTS HAVE THE LISTS OF EACH OTHER AND 3RD PARTY GROUPS AND ARE NOW QUITE READY TO USE THEM FOR PURGES AFTER THE 2024 PREZ ELECTION ???
WHY ARE YOU OBSESSED WITH NON EXISTENT PURGE LISTS
TIME FOR ANOTHER STAY IN LOONEY BIN ???
TROLL MORONS KNOW WHAT LISTS ARE BEING KEPT BY COMMIE/FASCIST EXTREMISTS ???
YEAH. SURE.
SEE HITLER PURGE IN 1934. AND LATER MASS PURGES IN 1939-1945.
SEE STALIN PURGE IN 1936-1939.
ANY LISTS IN THOSE PURGES ???
What do Hitler and Stalin have to do with the US currently? Those were very different times and places in countries with remarkably different cultures and histories than the US. Supposing purge lists ever do come about in the US, what makes you think they will have anything to do with partisan voter registration or lack thereof? It’s like you’re still living in the mid 20th century. You might look into how much varied information is out there on people. Voter regs hardly scratch the surface.
USA HAS VERY ADVANCED MINORITY RULE GERRYMANDER ROT – ESP IN THE USA GERRYMANDER CONGRESS – BOTH HOUSES.
NOOO SHORTAGE OF LEFT/RIGHT EXTREMIST WANNABEE LAWLESS MONARCH TYRANTS —
AND THEIR CULT GANGS.

Thanks, Jim and Richard Grayson, for the additional information.
The US is significantly less bad than many countries in many respects. How much time have you spent traveling to how many countries on how many continents? Spend some quality time in the crapholes of the turd world , try to start businesses in the nanny socialist euroblob.
Consider the Prussian tradition of rule following, the ignominious defeat of Germany in the first world war, the crippling sanctions and deep national humiliation, hyperinflation and mass unemployment that preceded Hitler. Or compare Russian history before Stalin to the US . Many millions died from war and starvation for two decades before Stalin ascended, along with everything that came before that. Your whining and catastrophizing ring hollow when you really dig into history and travel the world.
Incidentally AZ, how’s that Wagner Group purge going?
Why doesn’t AZ run for office?
Running from the basement only worked for Biden, and it won’t even work for him again. AZ would be a keyboard warrior if he understood the first things Sun Tzu, Niccolo Macchiavelli, and Dale Carnegie wrote about. As it stands, he’s more of a keyboard flasher or streaker with severe OCD.
