About this ballot information
Races and candidates come from District of Columbia's official candidate list, linked beside each race. We list every candidate the state lists, grouped by the party label the state uses, with no ranking. Measure titles are quoted from the state's election office, with its own summary where it publishes one.
GovGalaxy shows statewide U.S. Senate and governor races and statewide measures only. Your full ballot also has district and local races; your state or county election office has it.
