As a service to our readers, The Mexico Ledger sent questionnaires to each candidate in the contested races on the November 3, 2026, general election ballot.
To ensure that all candidates could speak in their own voice, responses were not edited, except to fix minor spelling mistakes. Each candidate, regardless of the position they are running for, were asked the same questions.
Below are the races and candidates in a contested election. Candidates are listed in alphabetical order. Click on the candidate's name to see their responses to our questionnaire. If clicking on the candidate's name does not take you to a questionnaire, it means The Mexico Ledger has not yet received the candidate's responses. Please note, all races for county offices are uncontested.
Editor's note: For candidates who have not received a questionnaire, please reach out to Staff Writer Sky Kauffman at news@mexicoledger.com or call 573-581-1111.
