Civic Underwriting
Become a Sponsor
Arizona Ballot Guide is a free, nonpartisan voter resource. No paywalls, no candidate rankings, no paid placements. Community sponsorships keep it that way.
Why Sponsor
The 2026 Arizona Primary is one of the most consequential elections in state history. Voters deserve easy access to clear, unbiased information about every candidate on their ballot — from Governor down to City Council.
Arizona Ballot Guide is built and maintained without advertising revenue, candidate fees, or party funding. Sponsorships from community organizations, local businesses, and civic groups keep the site free, independent, and up to date.

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. We list candidates in deterministic alphabetical or randomized order — never by paid placement.
We do not place sponsorship modules on candidate profile pages. Candidate pages are and will remain completely free of paid placements.
