2022 matches exactly: Clarity's 10,257 for Belinda Fox-Spencer (IND, CD1) plus 115 certified write-ins from the SOS write-in PDF. In 2026 the Clarity file is about 1,400 votes above the national aggregate even though its timestamp (5:36 pm ET) is earlier. The aggregate probably lagged the SOS feed (for example, a county canvass update). The gap is small, both parties move in proportion, and both districts are complete.
o contains only the ballot-listed Constitution Party candidate. The SOS "2026 General Write-In Results" link is not yet posted, so 2026 write-ins (if any) are not included. For 2022, certified write-ins are included by county.These notes record where each number came from and how it was checked. 2026 figures are unofficial. See the methodology and disclaimer.
