My reading of the AZ constitution suggests that if she neither signs nor vetos it by next Monday, it becomes law.

Is that your understanding?

I understand that if she does not veto it by Saturday night, it will become law. As Sunday doesn’t count, we are saying essentially the same thing.

Correct. We don’t have a pocket veto, but a “pocket signature”. If she does nothing by end of business Saturday, it becomes law.

Also, the effective date of the law would be 90 days after the legislature adjourns for the year, which is typically in late June.
