Of the fifty-two delegates to the Arizona Constitutional Convention held on 12 September 1910, a majority were progressive Democrats.

These included the direct primary, the initiative, referendum, and recall, and other items that would ensure that the voting public would have a fundamental say in the actions of the new state government. The final constitution was adopted by the US Congress but, because of the inclusion of the recall of judges in the document, President Taft (conservative) vetoed the bill. Arizona took the recall provision out and Taft signed the bill admitting Arizona. The citizens of Arizona then amended the new Constitution to allow for recall of judges.
