Background and policy positions
No candidate biography is on file for Hinckley, Walker, Kitchen, West, Chavez, Lopez, Mcadams, Mohamed, Owen, Blouin, Riebe, Farrell, Tomkins, Fonua or Villarreal. The candidate entries therefore do not establish their employment histories, education, prior government service or other biographical details.
None of the 15 candidates has a documented stance on file. That includes positions on federal spending, taxes, health care, immigration, national security or other matters that may come before the U.S. House. Voters cannot use a party designation alone to determine how an individual candidate would approach a specific issue.
Campaign finance and the election process
Fundraising, spending and cash-on-hand totals are not on file for any candidate in the UT-1 contest. Those categories can help voters understand how campaigns are financing their election activity, but there are no figures listed for comparison in this race.
The candidate list, campaign finance entries and documented policy positions may be updated as the election process continues. The scheduled general election date is Nov. 3, 2026.
