Nonpartisan local offices up for election in 2026
At the June BPOU meeting we heard from several candidates for local offices that are nonpartisan - that is the candidates are not running as affiliated with any political party. However, some of these are strongly conservative, and we want to give them our support and recommendation.
This is a partial list.
