2022 Candidates & Issues

2022 Candidates & Issues

In past years, candidates for races were few and far between! That’s all changing as Democrats and progressives realize that we can make dramatic, positive change here in Arkansas if we’ll run for something. Scroll down for more information.

Check Your Voter Registration

To check and make sure your voter registration is active and up to date, use Voter View, the Arkansas Secretary of State’s voter portal. Having your information up to date is critical for races that have wards/districts (city council, quorum court, state legislature) as your address determines what districts you reside in and will change what candidates you’re eligible to vote for. Enter your first name, last name, and birthdate.

If no record can be found under your current name or any previous name, you will need to fill out a voter registration form. You can find a list of available locations here. You can also contact us for help.

In Voter View, sample ballots will be available once the ballots have been finalized. These will show up at the bottom of the voter portal after you log in, around the beginning of September.

Important Dates

Because Arkansas is a voter suppressed state, there are lots of dates and deadlines to remember. You won’t be reminded by the county or the state. You’ll also need a voter ID, and a list of acceptable ID is available on the Secretary of State website. We recommend putting important dates into your personal calendar. If you have any questions about dates, required documents, or acquiring the correct ID, please reach out.
