Here's what to know about the MVD glitch that impacted Arizona voters

The Arizona Secretary of State's Office will launch an internal investigation into a recent citizenship tracking glitch as it searches for ways to narrow down the list of impacted voters.

In an update on the coding error, state election officials said they are commissioning a search of office records to unravel the situation and determine "the extent to which the issue was known and for how long, what steps were or were not taken to correct the problem, and how the office, moving forward, can help assure that something like this never happens again."

Officials said they had also sent records for some — but not all — impacted voters to county recorders across the state. They are continuing to determine the next steps for affected voters and said they are engaging with state agencies that may be able to help compress the list of impacted Arizonans.

The update comes days after officials announced that more people than initially reported were affected by the error, which was discovered in September. The news brought the total number of impacted voters to around 218,000.
