Thanks for visiting! For the past seventeen years, this has been the political history project that just wouldn't end. We work continually to both build a better understanding of California's early political history as well as keeping up with recent elections and looking ahead to the future.
Our records currently include state legislative races since 1898 and statewide and federal offices back to 1849. As of today, our records include information about 14,673 candidates who have run in a total of 564 elections.
It's probably a good idea to keep in mind that records are really incomplete in the very earliest years (1850s), and this is all a work in progress. That being that, we always appreciate you letting us know if anything doesn't quite look right.
