Learn About the Candidates
Information on this page refers to the General Election, November 8, 2022. In a General Election, voters decide which candidates will hold office starting in January of the next year. In some races, candidates are unopposed--no one from the other party or parties is running against them. Many races, however, are contested---there are more candidates running for that office than can hold it. Your vote helps decide who will serve as our elected officials for the next two or four years.

Candidate Guide: Champaign County contested races (all parties) -VoteChampaign has partnered with LWVCC to compile a Candidate Guide covering each of the contested races in Champaign County. This site can help you get ready to vote with a minimum of time and effort. Like LWVCC, VoteChampaign is nonpartisan and endorses no candidates.
The guide features questions and answers from each candidate and includes links to each candidate’s homepage, social media, email, and phone number, making it easy for a voter to do further research or contact each candidate. If a candidate has provided a Candidate Video, there's also a link to that video. There are also links to any available videos or debates. View the Candidate Guide here. |
