The deadline to register to vote in the upcoming primary election is upon us.

Only those who are registered by midnight Monday, July 6, can cast a vote in the Aug. 4 primary. On the ballot are a number of local, state and federal positions, from a U.S. Senate seat to the county attorney.

"We're tough as saguaros," editorial cartoonist David Fitzsimmons says. He says he saw a video made for the people of Detroit and became inspired to do his own take for Tucson.

The Recorder’s Office said it will keep its locations downtown, 240 N. Stone, Floor 1, and on the east side, 6920 E. Broadway, Suite D, open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Monday to accommodate last-minute registration.

Those hoping to register online can do so at ServiceArizona.com or by filling out a form at the Recorder’s Office, post office, or library and mailing it back dated Monday.

Pima County voters can check their registrations at recorder.pima.gov/VoterStats/VoterInfo
