Source scope and coverage

All 164 candidate contests on certified list: 8 statewide offices, 4 Board of Equalization districts, 52 U.S. House districts, 20 even-numbered state Senate districts, 80 Assembly districts. Judicial retention questions and local/county/school offices are excluded.

Names, party preferences, office/district and ballot designations come from the August 27 certified source snapshot; candidate ballot designations are not independently verified biographies.

The PDF includes judicial retention questions on pages 34–42; these are distinct yes/no questions and are not included in the 164 competitive-office contest records.

California county/local candidate rosters require county election-office sources.

Party values preserve official wording, including Non-Partisan and No Party Preference.

No contact details or residential addresses are collected.
