General Election

Tuesday, November 3, 2026

State primaries & runoffs

Primaries choose who makes November's ballot — and often decide the race. Registration deadlines land weeks earlier.

Special elections and local races (municipal, school board) are set by counties and cities and aren't listed here — your state's election office publishes those. Louisiana's December 12 majority-vote general is included; it applies to races where no candidate wins a majority on November 3.
