A new political party · Founded in Arizona
Christian Union
The dignity of every person. A state government that works as one. AI that does real work, and none of the slop. We're organizing to put the Christian Union Party on Arizona's ballot.
Step one
The road to Arizona's ballot
Arizona lets new parties onto the ballot by petition. Here is exactly what the law asks, and where we are.
1
Signatures
Registered Arizona voters sign a petition for political party recognition. We need signatures equal to 1⅓% of the votes cast for governor at the last election. For the 2026 cycle that was 34,126. The number resets after the November 2026 governor's race.
2
From across the state
Signers must be registered in at least five counties, and at least 10% must live in counties with fewer than 500,000 people. This is a party for all of Arizona, not one city.
3
On time
The petition is filed with the Secretary of State at least 250 days before the primary, and no signature can be more than 24 months old when it is filed. Ten voters sign an affidavit to go with it.
4
Verified
County recorders check that signers are registered voters. If enough are valid, the Christian Union Party gets its own primary ballot and its own column in the general election.
5
Stay on it
To keep its place, a party needs 5% of the vote for governor or president, or registered members equal to two-thirds of 1% of all Arizona voters.

We'll need signers, circulators and volunteers in every county. When the petition drive opens, this is where you'll sign up.
From Arizona Revised Statutes § 16-801, § 16-803 and § 16-804. Rules change; the Arizona Secretary of State has the final word.
What we would do in Arizona
The platform
An assistant that works for you
Keystone, an open-source AI assistant, helps you through any state service at any hour, in your language. A human is always one step away, and always answerable.
Families first
Homes families can afford, a state child credit, paid time for new parents and carers, and respect for parents as their children's first teachers.
A just wage
Full-time work should never leave anyone in poverty. Apprenticeships for every trade, workers with a voice in large companies, and good jobs in every county.
Water for every town
Arizona lives or dies by its water. Stewardship of rivers and groundwater, honest long-term planning, and a secure supply for every community, rural and urban.
Care for the weakest
The poor, the sick, the disabled, the elderly, children and the unborn have the first claim on our care. Help reaches people in need first; questions come later.
Faith, never forced
Religious liberty for every faith and none. No believer favoured over another in law, and no one punished for belief or unbelief.
Open to all
Free English and civics classes, mentors for newcomers, and one equal citizenship. Once you belong, your skin and your ancestry never decide how you're treated.
Open government
Laws, budgets, contracts, data and public code published by default. Open meetings, plain-language decisions, and a right to appeal anything the state decides about you.
Our position on AI
Pro-AI. Anti-slop.
We're for AI that does real work. We're against AI that wastes your time, fakes things, or decides about you where no one can explain it.
Yes to
- Answers at any hour, in your language
- Forms filled for you, from records you already gave the state
- Agencies that finally talk to each other
- Problems caught early: a shortage, a backlog, a broken bridge
- Open-source code anyone can inspect
No to
- Machine-made filler in place of real answers
- Fake images, voices and people
- Chatbots built to keep you from a human
- Decisions about your benefits, licence or freedom that no one can explain or appeal
- Profiles of what you believe, say or do
Keystone
An arch is many stones held by one keystone. Keystone is the AI assistant we'd build to connect Arizona's systems: one open-source network for the state, and one for every county, city and town that chooses to join.
It always says it is an AI. It never fakes anything. Every decision it makes is recorded, explained and open to appeal, and accountable people can always overrule or stop it.
Inside the Constitution
We work within the system
We keep the government America already has. We want to win elections and govern well at every level of it.
Congress, the President, the courts
- We'll run for Congress and support a federal government that keeps to its constitutional role and does it well.
- The Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the separation of powers stay exactly where they are.
Where we start
- Arizona runs most of daily life: schools, roads, courts, health programs, water and licensing.
- We'll run for the Legislature and statewide office, and connect the state's own systems so they work as one.
Fifteen counties
- Counties run courts, elections, public health and services across their whole area.
- They keep their powers, and can join the shared state systems so their residents get the same service everywhere.
Closest to you
- Streets, parks, police and fire, water and local services.
- What a city or town can do well, the state shouldn't take from it.
Christian Unionism
What we believe
Every person is made in the image of God, so no one is disposable: not the worker, not the sick, not the child, not the old, and not the stranger at the door.
Christian
In our foundations: our view of the person, our care for the weak and our hope. Our ideas come from the Church's social teaching.
Union
Union with one another and with the generations before and after us. People of every background, held together in one common good.
For everyone
Our values are Christian in origin. Our law is equal for all, and you don't need to share our faith to share our cause.
- Dignity
- The common good
- Solidarity
- Subsidiarity
- The poor first
- The dignity of work
- The family
- Stewardship
- Care for creation
- Religious liberty

Questions
Is the Christian Union Party on the ballot yet?
Not yet. We're organizing to qualify as a recognized party in Arizona by petition, which takes signatures from about 1⅓% of the last governor's vote. Until then, people who share our ideas can still run as independents under Arizona law.
Do I have to be a Christian to join?
No. Our ideas grew from Christian teaching, and we say so. But our platform is for everyone, and people of every faith and none share our care for dignity, family, work and the common good. Every member and every citizen is equal.
Do you want to replace Congress or the states?
No. We work inside the US Constitution and the Arizona Constitution. We want to win elections and govern well within the system America already has.
What does "pro-AI, anti-slop" mean?
We want AI that does real work for people: answering questions, filling in forms, connecting systems and catching problems early. We're against filler, fakes, chatbots that block you from a human, and AI decisions about your life that no one can explain or appeal.
Won't connecting state systems put my data at risk?
Connected doesn't mean exposed. You control your records, nothing is shared without a lawful reason you can see, no one gets profiled, and the code is open so anyone can check it.
Is Keystone a person?
No. Keystone is an AI, and it always says so. It doesn't run fake accounts, doesn't fake support, and treats people who disagree with us exactly as well as everyone else.
When can I start the party in my state?
Once Arizona is under way. State kits are coming, with each state's law, forms, deadlines and signature counts.
An arch is built one stone at a time. So is a party.
