About Arizona Clean Elections
Under Clean Elections, legislative and statewide candidates can choose to run for office by collecting a set number of small $5 donations. Once they receive enough qualifying contributions, candidates receive a public grant to run their campaigns.
With Clean Elections, elected officials are accountable solely to the voters, and not big special interests like the Arizona Chamber of Commerce intent on buying off politicians.
