NRA Political Victory Fund Issues Candidate Grades/Endorsements for November Elections
The National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF) has released candidate grades and endorsements for federal, state, and local elections, giving gun owners a clear, race-by-race measure of where candidates stand on the Second Amendment. Voters can search by address, print a personal voting reference card, confirm voter registration, and locate polling places through the NRA-PVF website.

Grades are available at www.NRAPVF.org and are based on voting records related to the Second Amendment, public statements, and responses to the NRA-PVF candidate questionnaire. Ratings range from A+ for proven champions of the right to keep and bear arms to F for consistent opponents of lawful gun ownership. A rating of “?” indicates a candidate who declined to answer the questionnaire or whose record is incomplete or contradictory.

Following the election grades release, NRA-PVF Chairman John Commerford stated: “This November, the Second Amendment is on the ballot. From Washington to your state capitol, anti-gun advocates are running a coordinated campaign to elect politicians determined to dismantle the God-given rights of law-abiding Americans. Every gun owner must take an active role in protecting those rights.”

Nationwide NRA Programs to Get Gun Owners to Vote
The grade release is the starting gun for NRA’s fall get-out-the-vote program, designed to turn informed gun owners into Election Day voters. Battleground Tour — NRA-ILA has launched its first national Gun Bus Battleground Tour, a multi-month campaign taking staff, volunteers, and pro-Second Amendment candidates to gun stores, ranges, factories, festivals, and college football tailgates. The tour is scheduled for more than 60 stops across Georgia, Iowa, Michigan, Montana, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming, concluding on Election Day, November 3, 2026. At each stop, organizers will distribute grade information, recruit volunteers, and activate voters ahead of the midterm elections.
