Arizona Ballot Guide is a free, nonpartisan voter resource. No paywalls, no candidate rankings, no paid placements. Community sponsorships keep it that way.

The 2027 season covers the Phoenix City Council runoffs, Tucson mayoral race, Scottsdale Council runoffs, and other Arizona municipal elections. A limited number of 2026 general-election spots (through November 3) remain available at pro-rated pricing.

Neutrality Policy

Arizona Ballot Guide is an independent, nonpartisan civic resource. Sponsorships are accepted from community organizations, local businesses, educational institutions, and civic partners. We do not accept campaign advertising from candidates, campaigns, political parties, PACs, or any organization whose primary purpose is to elect or defeat a candidate.

Sponsors have zero influence over candidate coverage, candidate ordering, issue summaries, voting record presentation, or source selection. Candidates are listed in deterministic alphabetical or randomized order — never by paid placement.

Candidate profile pages are and will remain completely free of paid placements.
