The November 8th, 2022 General Election Ballot Measure Argument Portal

The Secretary of State's Office is pleased to introduce this Ballot Measure Argument Portal for the 2022 election cycle. The Portal is the exclusive method for individuals, political committees, and organizations to submit arguments "for" and "against" statewide initiatives, referenda, and legislative referrals for publication in the Secretary of State's Publicity Pamphlet. The Publicity Pamphlet will be mailed to each Arizona household with a registered voter or emailed to Arizona registered voters who have opted to receive the pamphlet electronically in September/October 2022.

On behalf of Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, thank you for choosing to make your voice heard on these important measures affecting Arizonans.

 

Requirements

 

Fee: The fee for submitting a ballot measure argument is $75.00. Online payment is accepted.

 

Deadline: Your argument must be submitted, and online payment must be received by the Secretary of State's Office, by 11:59 P.M. (MST) on July 6th, 2022.

 

Preferred Internet Browser: We recommend using Chrome, Safari, or another internet browser other than the most recent version of Internet Explorer (unless you run Internet Explorer in compatibility mode).

 

Ballot Measure Proposition Number:  Because proposition numbers have not been assigned to citizen initiatives, you may use the format “Proposition XXX,” “Proposition ____,” “Prop XXX,” or “Prop ____”to refer to the initiative or referendum you are submitting a ballot argument “for” or “against.”  The Secretary of State’s Office will replace the “XXX” or blank with the assigned proposition number, if the measure qualifies for the ballot.

 

Refund Disclaimer: The initiatives and/or referenda listed below are proposed measures that have been issued a serial number by the Secretary of State's Office. More information on each measure is available on the Initiative, Referendum and Recall Applications webpage and Propositions can be found on the General Election webpage. However, most measures will not qualify for the ballot because (1) the sponsoring organization will not file the measure with the Secretary of State's Office by the July 7, 2022 deadline; or (2) a filed measure may not have sufficient signatures to qualify for the ballot after the Secretary of State and County Recorders perform their statutory duties to review petition signatures in July/August. Moreover, a measure may be kept off the ballot due to a subsequent court challenge. However, state law requires all Publicity Pamphlet arguments (along with payment) to be submitted by July 6, 2022 notwithstanding the potential changes that could occur after you submit your argument.

 

The Secretary of State's Office will only print an argument in the Publicity Pamphlet if a measure actually qualifies to appear on the ballot, and the Office will not be able to provide refunds (full or partial) for arguments that are not published. Accordingly, the Secretary of State's Office suggests you exercise discretion whether to submit an argument for a particular ballot measure.

Submit a Ballot Measure Argument

Fields marked with an asterisk are required and must be completed prior to clicking “Proceed to Payment.”

The statement of support or opposition of the ballot measure shall not exceed 300 words (per A.R.S. § 19-124(A)). The argument will appear in the Publicity Pamphlet exactly as entered; please ensure proper spelling, capitalization, and grammar prior to submission. Formatting from text will be removed.
