Notes on the official list
- The Michigan Department of State's listing calls itself the official candidate listing (this copy shows candidates as of October 27, 2026) but does not say it is certified. The Board of State Canvassers certified the candidates without party affiliation on August 17, 2026 and the August 4 primary nominees on August 24, 2026; minor-party candidates appear as nominated by their party conventions. Because no source calls the whole list certified, this file is marked as not certified.
- The listing prints names last name first; we put them first name first (for example "Barr, Callie" becomes "Callie Barr"). Party labels are as the listing prints them (for example "Democratic Party" or "No Party Affiliation").
- Michigan elects the governor and lieutenant governor together. The listing pairs Jocelyn Benson with Winnie Brinks (Democratic Party), John James with Jay DeBoyer (Republican Party), Anthony Hudson with Beau Parmenter (Libertarian Party), Donna Brandenburg with Robert Donald Cowper II (U.S. Taxpayers Party) and Douglas Campbell with Bobbie Clay (Green Party); this file lists only the candidates for governor.
- The listing marks these filers in federal races as disqualified (DISQ), so they are not included: Felix Thibodeau (7th District, Working Class Party); D. Etta Wilcoxon (13th District, Green Party); Shelby Campbell (13th District, No Party Affiliation); Maurice Morton (13th District, No Party Affiliation).
- The listing marks incumbents only for judicial offices, so this file does not record incumbency for any candidate.
