What is the Nevada voter file?
The Nevada voter file is the official statewide list of registered voters maintained by the state election office. It typically includes voter names, addresses, party registration (where applicable), precinct, district, and voting history. Campaigns use it to organize canvassing and mail programs.
How to request the Nevada voter file
Once you have the file, you can import it into a political canvassing tool like Activate to organize volunteers and track outreach.
- 1Confirm Nevada accepts your requestor type (Any person, candidate, party or organization).
- 2Visit the official Nevada election office request page.
- 3Submit the official request for the Nevada voter file.
- 4Receive the file and upload it securely to Activate for your campaign.
When the Nevada file arrives, bring it into Activate
If you already have a voter file you are authorized to use, create a campaign and upload it through the campaign's voter import. Review the field mapping and import results before assigning voters to volunteers.
- Upload CSV, Excel, delimited text, or a ZIP containing supported CSV and Excel files.
- The importer detects the delimiter (comma, tab, semicolon or pipe) rather than assuming commas, and reads the UTF-16 exports some state systems still produce.
- Every value is kept as text, so a ZIP of 02134 stays 02134 and a long voter ID stays intact.
- The first 5,000 records in an import are stored free. The cost step shows the record count and the total in Credits before you confirm.
Core canvassing is free, and each import includes the first 5,000 usable records. AI-assisted preparation and additional records use Credits; SMS requires purchased Credits.

How to Get Your State's Voter File and Put It to Work in the Field
State voter files run from free to $5,000, and the fee has nothing to do with what you get. This walks through which office keeps the list, why almost every published figure is still an estimate, what actually arrives in the file, and what secure handling costs once you import it.
