Our Mission
The No Labels Party of Arizona exists for one core reason: to give independent-minded Arizonans a real path onto the ballot. Not a protest vote. Not a spoiler. A recognized party where candidates can run without being forced to the extremes.
Why we exist
Signatures an independent statewide candidate needed in 2024 just to appear on the Arizona general election ballot — an all-but-impossible bar for anyone without institutional money behind them.
Signatures a candidate needs under a recognized party to qualify for the 2026 primary. Same candidate. Same ideas. A door that finally opens.
“This change democratizes elections. We're creating a space where candidates can run without being forced to extremes, and where voters can finally have a real say in who represents them.”
For decades, voters have been forced into a false choice between two entrenched parties that prioritize loyalty over progress. We're not defined by rigid partisanship — we're defined by shared principles most Arizonans already hold.
Candidates aren't asked to agree on every issue. They're asked to sign a pledge committing to open primaries and to work respectfully across party lines — a return to the spirit of cooperation that once defined American leadership.
What unites us
We love America and see no other nation in history that has done more for human progress. We reject the politics of grievance and pessimism, and hold a profound optimism about the great cause we call America.
The road so far
Scroll to follow the movement from an idea to a recognized party on Arizona's 2026 ballot.
In 2024, an independent statewide candidate in Arizona needed more than 42,000 signatures just to appear on the general election ballot — a barrier that kept commonsense candidates out of the race entirely.
Arizonans who were tired of being forced into a false choice between two entrenched parties came together to build a recognized home for independent voters.
The Arizona Secretary of State approved the party's transition, giving voters and candidates a meaningful third option with real ballot access.
Candidates running under the recognized party need roughly 1,500 signatures to qualify for the 2026 primary instead of tens of thousands — democratizing elections and opening the door to more voices, more competition, and more choice.
Candidates are asked to sign a pledge committing to open primaries and to working respectfully across party lines — a return to the spirit of cooperation that once defined American leadership.
Arizonans can officially register with the party through the Arizona Motor Vehicle Division at azmvdnow.gov — every registration strengthens our standing on the ballot. The official ballot name is NOL.
We are building precinct, district, and state organizations, holding town halls across Arizona, and recruiting leaders ready to put country before party and people before politics.
For the first time in decades, independent-minded Arizonans had candidates on the Arizona primary ballot who answer to voters instead of party extremes.
Our candidates compete statewide — and Arizona voters finally get a real say in who represents them.
