2020 Election Quick Reference


I have compiled a list of candidates running in federal, state and county elections that will appear on the ballots in Hillsborough County. I thought this list might be of help to those who want to research the qualifications and viewpoints of the candidates before entering the voting booth. I have begun adding links to the candidate's campaign website, facebook page or twitter account as I find them. Just click on a candidate's name if you see that it is color highlighted. When I can finish adding links to the complete page, I will repost this article. For now though, I thought it would be a good place to start.
