We print and mail political mailers and campaign postcards on the timelines campaigns need, and we’re glad to partner with your team to keep the mail side simple. EDDM’s saturation approach reaches every address in the area you choose, without needing a voter file.
On a campaign deadline? Call 602-433-9101 so we can talk through timing before you upload artwork.
Why EDDM Fits Political Mail
EDDM reaches every address on the USPS carrier routes you choose, which you match to the area you need to reach. For a race where you’re trying to reach an entire geographic area rather than a pre-screened list of likely voters, that’s the more direct tool. No list to buy, no list to maintain. You pick the carrier routes that match your area and every address on them gets your piece.
You can check routes in your district and see how many households each one reaches.
Built for Campaign Deadlines
We work backward from your target delivery date, factoring print time, USPS EDDM paperwork, and the mailing window, so your postcards land when they need to, not whenever the print queue allows.
Political Mail Compliance
USPS treats political campaign mail as its own mail category, with handling practices like the red Tag 57 used to identify trays of campaign mail in the postal network. Beyond postal handling, political advertising is subject to disclosure and disclaimer requirements that vary by race and jurisdiction: federal, state, and local rules differ, and it’s the campaign’s responsibility to get those right. We print exactly what you approve; confirm your required disclaimer language with your campaign’s legal counsel or the relevant election authority before you send us final artwork.
More Than EDDM
EDDM saturation is the most common choice for political mail, but it is not the only way we mail. We also run list-based campaigns using targeted mailing lists filtered by basics like age, income, and location, and in some cases we can get a list of registered voters for tighter targeting. If your race calls for a specific audience instead of full saturation, we’ll help you pick the right approach.
How Pricing Works
Political mailer pricing works the same as any EDDM campaign: print cost, postage, and (if we’re handling the mailing) a service component for USPS paperwork and drop-off. See your real price in about two minutes with our free EDDM tool, no account, no sales call required, though we’re glad to talk directly at 602-433-9101 if your timeline is tight.

Budgets get set early in a campaign, so it helps to know what a mailing costs before you plan the calendar.
Political Mailer FAQs
What size postcard works best for a political mailer?
Common political mailer sizes include:
- 6.5″ x 9″ (most popular)
- 8.5″ x 11″
- 4.5″ x 12″
- 6″ x 12″
- 6.5″ x 8″

How fast can you turn around a political mailer before an election?
A typical EDDM order takes about 14 days from the time you submit your order to in-home delivery. That’s a general estimate; delivery dates are never guaranteed. If the election calendar is tight, call us first and we’ll tell you honestly what’s achievable.
Do you handle the required political disclaimers?
We print what you approve, but disclaimer and disclosure requirements vary by race and jurisdiction. Confirm your required language with your campaign’s counsel or election authority before sending final artwork.
Can I target a specific area?
Yes. EDDM works off USPS carrier routes, which you can match to the area you need to reach. Our EDDM tool shows real routes for any area.
