How this guide is made

Statewide ballot questions

No statewide ballot questions were found for November 3, 2026. Local questions are on your county's sample ballot. If a statewide question is added, its official wording will be marked 'official text to come' until checked word for word.

Candidates

The list of races and candidates is the Department of State's candidate list for the November 3, 2026 general election ↗, in party order: Democratic, Republican, then other parties (your ballot may list them in a different order), with names as they appear on the ballot. Where a candidate lives is not shown here; the Department of State list does not give it in a form we use. Each profile lists checkable facts with links to where they came from, the candidate's own stated priorities clearly labeled as theirs, and links to official records and campaign finance filings. We don't rate candidates, list endorsements, or publish polling.

Districts

District lines on the map come from U.S. Census Bureau files of the Pennsylvania Legislative Reapportionment Commission's 2022 state Senate and House maps. Your sample ballot is the final word.
