Local
Election
October 17, 2026
Our next local election is coming on October 17, 2026. Local government has a lot of influence over our daily lives, and this is our opportunity to choose those who will represent us and make the local decisions that affect us, from housing density to local tax rates.
The BCA is strictly nonpartisan, and we’ll never tell anyone who to vote for. But we strongly encourage voting, and this page is our guide to help you participate in the election.
We add information about candidates as it becomes available.
