ABOUT THE REPORT

As the election year continues, we’ve compiled research memos that provide background on candidates running for federal office in 2022. This is an analysis of nearly 1,000 candidates running for a House or Senate seat in the 2022 general election.

Our research highlights which candidates are running for which office, and what their current occupation is—including those who are state or local officials and who may be subject to pay-to-play regulations. For those candidates, we also include a list of potentially relevant pension funds, though there may be additional public finance considerations as well.
