Issue evidence — side by side

Recorded votes, documented positions and candidates’ own words are shown with sources. “In their own words” quotes a candidate on the topic without inferring a stance. Votes describe specific bills or motions; they do not establish overall support or opposition to a broad issue. A dash means our research has no evidence on that topic, not that the candidate has no position.

Research notes & limits

Neither candidate has completed a 2026 Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey. Randall's campaign website lists issue titles but its position detail pages are JavaScript-rendered and could not be fetched; her positions section is left minimal rather than inferred. Fox's issue statements are drawn from her campaign website as republished by Ballotpedia. Randall's federal key votes and FEC totals are added separately by script. Fox's campaign website is JavaScript-rendered and could not be read directly, so her biography is limited to what Ballotpedia and local news report.
