At Ballotpedia, we believe that everyone deserves meaningful, reliable, trustworthy information about their candidates. We also know that good information—especially at the local level—is hard to find. That's why Ballotpedia created Candidate Connection.
We ask all federal, state, and local candidates to complete a survey and share what motivates them on political and personal levels. Our survey helps voters better understand how their candidates think about the world and how they intend to govern—information they need to feel confident they're picking the best person for the role.
If you are a candidate, take our survey here. Or you can ask a candidate to take the survey by sharing the link with them.
Submit endorsements
Endorsements can be particularly helpful for voters trying to decide between candidates in local races, which often feature nonpartisan candidates. Endorsements from individuals and organizations can help voters better understand policy differences between candidates in these cases where little or no other news coverage of policy stances exists.
Candidates, share endorsements here. Readers, share endorsements you know about here.
About the city
- See also: Dallas, Texas
Dallas is a city in Texas and the seat of Dallas County. As of 2020, its population was 1,304,379.
City government
- See also: Council-manager government
The city of Dallas uses a council-manager system. In this form of municipal government, an elected city council—which includes the mayor and serves as the city's primary legislative body—appoints a chief executive called a city manager to oversee day-to-day municipal operations and implement the council's policy and legislative initiatives.
Most cities in the United States with populations over 1 million use a strong mayor system, in which the mayor—instead of a city manager—serves as the city's chief executive. In 2005, a measure was placed on the ballot in Dallas that would have removed the office of the city manager and increased mayoral powers. Sixty-two percent of Dallas voters, however, disapproved of the proposal. As a result, the city retained its council-manager system.[1]
