Your Arkansas voter data is included
Arkansas's official voter file is available from the Arkansas Secretary of State, Elections Division, subject to that source's current requester, purpose, certification, and delivery requirements. $2.50 per file. The statewide registration file, the federal vote-history file, and the combined file are each $2.50.
After confirming eligibility, geography, and the source's current terms, VoterFile obtains the current official file directly from the source at onboarding and loads your county or district into your private workspace. You receive a written software-and-service quote before purchase, with any official-source acquisition cost disclosed and capped before approval.
Prefer to obtain your own copy instead? That works exactly the same way:
- Mail the two-page Voter Data Request Form with a check to the Secretary of State's Elections Division, or email voterservices@sos.arkansas.gov.
- The form has no oath, no eligibility gate, and no purpose requirement; a Company field affirmatively invites commercial requesters.
- Choose the registration file, the vote-history file, or the combined file, delivered by CD, FTP, or Dropbox.
What the software does with your Arkansas file
Once your file is loaded into a workspace isolated to your campaign, it is imported and normalized, de-duplicated, and geocoded to precincts and walkable geography.
Official-file fields and customer-entered campaign activity support filters, walk lists, mail lists, turf, and exports. Where the accepted state and privacy lane enables modeled outputs, turnout and vote-timing models calibrate to Arkansas's own election history rather than California's, and any ethnicity-likelihood output is presented as an estimate rather than an official voter field.
- Import, normalize, and de-duplicate your uploaded file
- Geocode addresses to precincts and walkable turf
- Turnout and vote-timing models only where the Arkansas workspace policy enables them
- Surname-and-geography ethnicity estimates only where the workspace policy enables them
- Walk lists, mail lists, and canvassing packets
- Portable CSV export for field, mail, and phones
Access review first. Then official-file acquisition.
Requester categories, certifications, and signatures differ by source. VoterFile reviews the current Arkansas requirements first and tells you whether the issuing office needs information or a signature from the campaign.
After the services agreement, any required source paperwork, and written quote approval, we obtain the approved official file and load your voters, typically within the source's stated processing time. Refreshes come straight from the Arkansas Secretary of State, Elections Division on the state's own update cadence under the written service quote.
- Complete the services agreement and any source-required authorization or certification
- We obtain the official file and load your county or district
- Any official-source cost is disclosed and capped in writing before approval
Built for the races the big vendors skip
The national voter-data vendors are priced and built for statewide and federal campaigns. A first-time candidate for Arkansas city council or school board is too small for that model and ends up with a spreadsheet.
VoterFile scopes the geography first, then provides a written software-and-service quote before purchase. Any official-source acquisition cost is disclosed and capped in that quote, and nothing is ordered until you approve it. It is aimed squarely at the local challenger in a low-turnout race.
- Written software-and-service quote before purchase
- Official-source acquisition cost disclosed and capped before approval
- Designed for city council, school board, and special-district races
How onboarding works
First you sign a short services agreement that keeps VoterFile as your data processor, with no sale, no pooling, and deletion on request. Then we obtain the approved official Arkansas file and organize it in your workspace for lists, turf, and exports — no upload needed.
Nothing moves until the agreement is signed, and your file lives in a workspace no other customer can reach. When your race is over, or any time you ask, your file and the lists are deleted.
Ready to scope your campaign's voter-file workspace?
Request an access and scope review. We confirm the campaign, geography, authorization, official file cost, and import plan, then provide a written software-and-service quote before purchase. Any source cost is disclosed and capped in writing.
Questions
Do you sell or provide the Arkansas voter file?
The data comes included with onboarding only after source-access review. VoterFile obtains the approved official-file scope under the issuing office's current requester, purpose, form, and delivery requirements and loads it only for your campaign workspace. We do not sell voter data; your written quote covers the scoped software and service and discloses and caps any official-source acquisition cost before approval.
How much does the Arkansas voter file cost?
$2.50 per file. The statewide registration file, the federal vote-history file, and the combined file are each $2.50. VoterFile confirms geography, eligibility, and the official-source cost, then gives you a written software-and-service quote before purchase. Any acquisition cost is disclosed and capped in writing, and nothing is ordered until you approve it.
Can I use it for my Arkansas local race?
Arkansas's Secretary of State states there are no state-law restrictions on use of the released data; only field-level confidential records are withheld at source. Standard data hygiene still applies.
What does the software itself cost?
Data-included work is quote-first. We review the campaign, geography, authorization, official file cost, and import scope, then provide a written software-and-service quote before purchase. Any source acquisition cost is disclosed and capped in writing and requires approval before ordering.
