Out-of-county voters in Coconino County, Arizona, have been causing confusion at polling places by attempting to vote using federal-only ballots despite being registered in other counties. This has led county election officials to issue a 'Misinformation Alert' to address the issue.

According to Coconino County Elections Director Eslir Musta, there seems to be a misunderstanding among voters that federal-only ballots can be used interchangeably between all counties, which is not the case. Musta noted that while this is not the first time they have encountered this situation, the requests have been more widespread this year.
