There are forums for each state where one can discuss special elections in that state. The original post for this thread is in the Michigan forum. There are DU forums on elections and campaigns that have some posts but are not heavily followed.

Special elections are strange animals where only members in that district may vote (and these districts may be in process of changing). My oldest child just voted in the special election for Texas CD-18 to pick the successor for Congressman Sylvester Turner but will be voting in Texas CD 9 for the next primary and general election to the Texas gerrymander.

The best place for threads on upcoming elections can be in both General Discussion and the applicable state forum.

Again, welcome to DU
