In general elections, you vote for federal, state, and local officials.
Elected federal officials are U.S. Senators and U.S. Representatives to Congress.
Elected state officials are Governor, Lieutenant Governor, General Assembly, Attorney General, Auditor General, and State Treasurer.
Elected local officials are county and city officials, judges and magisterial district judges.
In odd-numbered years, such as 2025, general elections for electing local officials are also called municipal elections because there are no federal or state officials being elected. Every four years, the General Election is also a Presidential Election because, according to the U.S. Constitution, the U.S. President’s term is four years.
