The official candidate names appear first. Campaign finance is reported separately and is not an endorsement or prediction.

When and how do I vote?
View registration, in-person absentee voting, absentee request, ballot return, ranked-choice voting, and Election Day deadlines.
How to read the money: Maine state cards reproduce campaign-to-date profile fields displayed after the September 22 42-Day Pre-General filing. The profiles do not publish one campaign-to-date start date. FEC figures cover January 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026. Troy D. Jackson has an exact FEC candidate and principal committee match but no processed 2025-2026 financial summary. Missing does not mean $0. Records can be amended.
