Republican Primary Picks 2026

Early voting for the Primary Election starts Tuesday, February 17, here in Harris County, Texas, with Election Day on Tuesday, March 3. So I’m working to make my choices and recommendations.

Once again, we have the longest ballot in the nation—maybe the world. And this may be my longest post ever. I didn’t want to split it up, because early voting is only days away, and people are asking me for my picks.

The quick version is this chart. While I try to make it all worth reading, this is so long, you may want to scroll to what you need.

As I’ve written this blog for the past 15 years, I stand by what I’ve said. Occasionally further information comes out, which may change what I would say, and a few times I’ve gotten information from sources that turned out to be wrong. Those instances have been few. But when I write about my ballot choices—which mainly comes up at these biennial Primary Election times—I am less certain than I am about my other writing. I have consistently, always, tried to make the best choices, among the choices available, to support strong constitutional conservative candidates. But I have at times been disappointed.

This is to say, feel free use my opinions here as a data point, but do your own research. Get to know as much as you can about the candidates. I’ll share what I know, but under a time crunch, I might not yet know enough.

We’ll go down the ballot, US Senate and Congress, then statewide races first. Then we’ll do local races and propositions.
