Welcome to The News & Observer, Herald-Sun and Charlotte Observer’s Voter Guide for the 2022 U.S. Senate primary elections.
We have reached out to all of the candidates running for U.S. Senate who will appear on the primary ballot in May and asked them to complete a candidate questionnaire.
Election Day is May 17. Candidates who do not face a primary opponent were not asked to complete a questionnaire and will not appear in this voter guide.
The names of candidates who responded to our questionnaire are hyperlinked below so that Observer, N&O and Herald-Sun subscribers can read their answers to our questions about education, public safety, their top priorities and what life skills and experience make them the candidate to vote for.
Voters affiliated with a political party can vote in that party’s primary. Unaffiliated voters can choose which political party’s primary they want to vote in, but can only choose one.
The early voting period runs from April 28 to May 14 at 3 p.m. The deadline to request an absentee ballot is May 10 and all civilian ballots must be returned by May 17.
If a second primary election is needed, it will be held July 26. The general election is Nov. 8.
