Local races

Local races refer to elections for positions within a specific community or area, such as city councils, mayors, school board members, or local judges. These races focus on issues directly affecting residents, like public safety, schools, and city services. Voters in these elections choose representatives who will make decisions and set policies that impact their daily lives. Although they may not receive as much national attention, local races are crucial for shaping community priorities and ensuring government responsiveness at the neighborhood level.
