Scope is currently working on the candidates rating lists for the upcoming Primary and General elections for 2026.

These lists will include NYS Congressional candidates, NYS State Senate races, and Governor and Attorney General races.

There are too many Assembly races for this small committee to go through, but we encourage each chapter to evaluate those and local races on their own.

Scope does not endorse any candidate. But these rating lists are to help you identify those candidates who have your basic rights and freedoms in mind, and those who don’t.

As always, it’s you the voter that decides which way you want to go.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________
In late December, 2025, and early January, 2026, SCOPE mailed out 110 Candidate Questionnaires to Congressional candidates all across New York; Republicans and Democrats. 

* If you are a congressional candidate, please fill out your questionnaire and return it.

* If you are a candidate for the NYS Senate or Assembly and would like a questionnaire:  .pdf file here
