2026 Spring Election

The spring election will be held on April 7, 2026, and will include the 10 even-numbered seats on the Madison Common Council.

As part of the Chamber’s endorsement process, questionnaires were sent to the Common Council candidates asking for opinions on issues important to business. All completed questionnaires are linked below. Candidates seeking an endorsement were invited to interviews, and endorsements are offered based on alignment with our mission and agenda.

We are currently conducting endorsement interviews and will announce our endorsements soon.
