Democratic Elected Officials

Any voter can become a candidate by collecting signatures on a petition, to indicate support for a candidacy. The number of signatures required, timing, and eligibility to sign, varies by office. Additional steps are required to become a candidate of a party other than the one to which the candidate belongs.

If multiple candidates submit petitions for the same party line, that party's voters choose between them in a primary election.
