The new sticker reflects the cultural impact of the Tohono O’odham and Spanish languages in the area.
TUCSON, Ariz. — Voters in Pima County casting a mail-in ballot for the Tuesday, August 2 primary will find a new addition to their early voting packet: A new tri-lingual"I voted" sticker.
English is still the most common language spoken in Pima County, according to Census data, but the sticker reflects the cultural impact of the Tohono O’odham and Spanish languages in the area. Both languages, along with English, are represented on the new sticker. "Most Pima County voters will be unfamiliar with the Tohono O’odham language," the Recorder's Office shared in a statement."It was included to acknowledge that Pima County’s boundaries sit within the ancestral homelands of the Tohono O’odham Nation."
The Tohono O’odham language has had an impact on daily life in the state: The very name"Arizona" is derived from the O’odham word “Alṣon,” which means “place of little springs ” and the name “Tucson” is based on the O’odham phrase “S-cuk ṣon,” meaning “base of the black mountain,” shared Cázares-Kelly's office.
