Ballot list from the state's own certified list of candidates for the November 3, 2026 general election; not yet checked against the state’s own list.

Governor candidates file with the state, not the FEC, so outside-spending and PAC figures from federal filings do not apply. Money shown is as reported from state filings and is labeled “reported” until re-pulled from the state’s records.
