2026 California November 3rd Election

I like comparing who different groups endorse. My hope is it helps others find it easier to vote.

Updated for November focusing on California - see official voter guide. If out of California, Ballotpedia is another great resource.

California Wide

Endorsements were pretty one sided for most races, so just picking the ones that are more interesting.
