BALLOT ACCESS 2026
Securing Democracy Starts Here
Help us place The American Covenant Party on the ballot by collecting 30,000 voter signatures by May 1. This isn’t about forcing agreement; it’s about expanding democratic choice and restoring the covenant of “We the People.”
Progress Toward 30,000 Signatures
WHY BALLOT ACCESS IS A DEMOCRATIC IMPERATIVE
Democracy Requires Choice
A healthy democracy ensures voters have more than two options. Ballot access is the first step to breaking partisan gridlock.
The Vote Is Sacred
Protecting the right to vote also means protecting the right to have meaningful options to vote for.
The Covenant Must Remain Open
The covenant of “We the People” must be open to all, not a closed system controlled by two parties.
