Statehouse
Your race. Your site. Your infrastructure. A one-of-a-kind campaign website in your own dedicated cloud — designed, built, and run by Electbase.

Who it's for
Most campaigns are well served by a great template and shared infrastructure — that's the point of the platform. But some races outgrow both: the statewide campaign whose brand deserves a site nobody else has, the competitive congressional race with security requirements, the organization whose lawyers want the data in an account the campaign owns. Statehouse is built for the campaign where "good enough" isn't.
Everything in War Room, plus two things nobody else gets
Statehouse starts where War Room ends: your site is fully managed by Electbase staff — content, integrations, reporting, compliance review, election-night readiness, all under a defined SLA. Then it adds:
A bespoke-designed website. Not a platform template — a site designed and built specifically for your campaign, from art direction to information architecture. Your race's story, told in a design that exists nowhere else, with the platform's compliance and accessibility standards (WCAG 2.2 AA, correct disclaimers) built in from the first mockup.
Your own dedicated cloud. The site runs in a Google Cloud account dedicated to your campaign — single-tenant isolation, no shared infrastructure. The campaign owns the infrastructure and the data that lives on it; Electbase operates it for you. Infrastructure costs are billed through to your cloud account, transparently.
Why infrastructure ownership matters
For most races, shared infrastructure is a feature — it's why the platform is affordable. For a few, isolation is the requirement: donor and supporter data in an account the campaign controls, an audit trail your counsel can point to, and no neighbors on the hardware. Statehouse gives your campaign the deed, not a lease — and keeps professional operators running the property.
How the commercial side works
Statehouse is quoted per engagement, in three parts: a one-time design-and-build fee for the bespoke site, a monthly managed-service retainer (the War Room component), and infrastructure passthrough billed to your campaign's own cloud account. No public price points — the scope of the build sets the quote.
Is a Statehouse site still on the Electbase platform?
It's built and operated by the Electbase team to the platform's standards — compliance, accessibility, integrations — but the design is bespoke and the infrastructure is yours. Think of it as the platform's craftsmanship without the platform's template.
Who owns the Google Cloud account?
The recommended model is campaign-owned: your campaign holds the account, owns the data and billing relationship, and Electbase operates inside it. Exact structure is settled during scoping.
How long does a Statehouse build take?
It depends on scope — a bespoke design plus dedicated infrastructure is a real project, not an afternoon. Timeline is part of the quote, and we're honest about it: if your election calendar can't fit a bespoke build, War Room gets you fully managed on proven infrastructure much faster.
Do I need Statehouse for security?
Not necessarily — every Electbase site gets serious security practices on shared infrastructure. Statehouse is for campaigns whose requirements (or counsel) specifically call for single-tenant isolation and infrastructure ownership.
