It was our intent to leave up all the 2020 and 2021 responses so voters and candidates could have an idea of what would likely be included in the information provided for the 2022 elections.

HOWEVER, a yet unexplained computer glitch removed responses received during the General 2020 election, but left the ones gathered during the 2020 Primary.
