Read this record correctly
Official totals; transparent calculations.
Are these official?
Yes. This is the FEC's biennial Federal Elections 2020 publication, compiled from results officially reported by state and territory election offices.
Does Election.org call races?
No. We preserve the FEC winner indicator. Neither is an election-night projection.
Why can totals differ by column?
Primaries, general elections, runoffs, fusion-party lines, and ranked-choice rounds are distinct stages. Election.org does not collapse them.
What does a blank mean?
The official workbook did not publish a value for that candidate and stage. Blank values remain blank instead of becoming zero.
