What Rallybase does not know here
- Which of these people will actually appear on the printed ballot. A position on the ballot is the only field that would tell us, and this state does not publish one to us — so what is above is everyone who filed, and a primary has not necessarily narrowed it.
- Anything these people have said, raised, or been endorsed by. Rallybase holds a name, a party as filed, and the filing itself. It publishes no endorsements, no polling and no money.
- A campaign website for any of them. The filings we read carry none.
