How to get your Arkansas voter file
Arkansas isn't pre-loaded, so you provide the voter file and we load it into Motion51 for you. Here's the official source — request it from the state, send us the file, and you're ready to cut turf.
- Where to request it
- Arkansas Secretary of State, Elections Division[email protected] | (501) 682-5070 or toll-free (800) 482-1127 | Victory Building, 1401 W. Capitol Avenue, Suite 250, Little Rock, AR 72201 (mailing address for data requests) | State Capitol Room 026 (walk-in)
- Cost
- $2.50 per file. Three file options: (1) VR — Voter Registration file, (2) Vote History file, (3) VRVH — combined Voter Registration + Vote History. Total to obtain everything: $2.50 for the combined VRVH (or $5.00 if ordering VR and Vote History separately). Check or money order only — payable to Arkansas Secretary of State.
- How to request
- Complete the SOS 'Voter Registration Data Request' form (Sections A and B). Mail the completed form with check or money order to the Elections Division at the Victory Building address. No online portal — payment must be by mail. File is delivered on CD (pickup at Victory Building) or by email after payment clears.
- Turnaround
- Typically 5–10 business days after payment is received and cleared. Email delivery faster than CD pickup once processed.
Costs and rules change — confirm the current details on the official page before you order. Each state also has use restrictions on voter data — check the official agency link above for the specifics. Once you have the file, we handle loading it, cutting turf, and getting your volunteers knocking.
