5 candidates on the November 3, 2026 ballot, from the Idaho Secretary of State's list (opens in a new tab). The officeholder comes first, then the Republican and Democratic nominees together by last name, then everyone else by last name; in each group a candidate with a statement or vote on the record comes first (how the order works). Each has the same space. The list: Idaho Candidate Filing Portal (run.voteidaho.gov), Search Filed Candidates, election '11/03/2026 - 2026 GENERAL' (Idaho Secretary of State) (The portal states no certification date; its API marks the 2026 GENERAL list isFinalList true, the latest withdrawal shown is September 1, 2026, and voteidaho.gov/candidate-filing says filing is closed and the withdrawal deadline has passed).

These candidates are not printed on the November 3 ballot. A voter writes in the name, and the votes count because an official election list certifies the candidacy: the state's own, or a county election board's where the state publishes none. Each line names the list that certifies it; what each has said about data centers stays on their own page.
Labels are applied by the record's published rules: two readings of each statement, and a third that reads its source where the two differ. Every label sits beside its statement and its source, and any label can be challenged through Report a change, with the correction logged on the corrections page.
