Montgomery County Candidates List For Local, State And Federal Office

This is a list of candidates for local, state and federal office in Montgomery County as best as we could determine on August 15, 2017 . It will be updated at least once a week until the filing deadline of Feb. 27. Candidates for county executive and county council are listed first, followed by state legislature, Congress and then statewide office.

We have done our best to identify candidates who have announced, filed for the office or filed for public financing of their campaigns. We may have missed some candidates, although the list includes close to 100 candidates already, 20 just for the four at-large seats on the Montgomery County Council. We are missing photos and websites for some candidates.

This list is maintained by Glynis Kazanjian and Len Lazarick who should be emailed about any corrections or additions. We hope to add campaign finance and other useful data as the election season goes on, but not so much data that the list becomes unwieldy.
