What happened
Proposition 319, a ballot measure in Arizona, is leading with 58% of the vote in early results. If the measure passes, it would prohibit the government from installing or using new photo enforcement systems to identify traffic violators. For municipalities already using these systems, the measure would require local voters' approval before they can continue using them.

Why it matters
The measure would fundamentally change how traffic violations are enforced across the state. If enacted, it would restrict the use of technologies like Flock cameras and require local government bodies to seek voter approval for existing systems.
Candidates are currently running for local government positions in Arizona.
