Who they are
A nonprofit regional business chamber whose policy council and board take positions on ballot measures. Its website says it does not endorse candidates, so its 2026 graph edges are ballot positions only.
In their words: To build a strong community by supporting local for-profit and non-profit businesses, advocating for a strong business environment, and sustaining economic vitality.

2026 positions
What the labels on each endorsement mean
- Endorser's own statement
- The organization or person announced it themselves (their site, their press release, or a news story reprinting that release).
- “X campaign lists Y”
- Only the candidate's (or ballot campaign's) own website says so. We didn't find the endorser saying it. It may be true, but it is the campaign's claim.
- City filing
- A committee's registration with the city clerk names the candidate or measure it supports.
- News listing
- A news outlet lists the endorsement, but we did not find the endorser's own statement.
Titles (e.g. “U.S. Representative”) are as printed on the cited page and describe the person, not an endorsement by their office. A blank title means the source did not give one.
