The LWVLA works to keep voters informed. We provide information on this page about candidates who will be on ballots in Union County for the upcoming Presidetial election on November 5th. Union County voters will be casting votes for:  
  • President of the United States
  • U.S. Congress:
    • United States Senator
    • Representative (15th district)
  • Pennsylvania State Government
    • Attorney General
    • Auditor General
    • Treasurer
  • Pennsylvania Legislature 
    • State Senator (23rd district)
    • Representative in the PA General Assembly (76th, 83rd, 85th districts)

Union County voters will find names of all candidates on their ballots as well as information the candidates submitted in response to questions on Vote411 and in the LWVLA Voters Guide. Despite repeated outreach from the League and Vote411, fewer candidates have responded to our questions this fall than in 2020, the last presidential election year. You can help hold candidates accountable for providing voters with information about where they stand by contacting them to ask about their missing information.

 

League-Sponsored Candidate Events

In contested races, if at least two candidates in a race agree to participate in a League-sponsored event, you will be able to hear them respond to voters’ questions. Information about candidate events will be published when available.

For this upcoming General Election, the LWVLA invited all of the candidates in the contested races for PA Senate District 23 and PA House of Representatives 76th and 85th districts to appear for a candidate event. An event was not scheduled because one or both candidates in each race failed to respond. You can help hold candidates accountable for providing voters with information by contacting them to ask why they are not presenting themselves to candidate forums to answer questions about their positions.
