The District of Columbia Board of Elections has posted sample ballots for the November 8, 2022. See the ward six ballot here.

The Green Party is well-positioned to keep its qualified status. It has nominees for Delegate to the U.S. House, Chairman of the City Council, and At-Large member of the City Council. The party needs 7,500 votes for any one of them. The Green Party also has a candidate for Shadow U.S. Representative, but that race doesn’t count for retention.

The Libertarian Party has nominees for Delegate to the House, and Mayor. It won’t be easy for the Libertarian Party to get 7,500 votes for either office, because the Republican Party has nominees for both offices as well. In midterm years the turnout in D.C. is low, so the vote test, realistically, is more difficult to meet in midterm years than in presidential years. Only once before did the Libertarian Party poll enough votes in D.C. in a midterm year, and that was in 2018, when the party got 7,569 for Mayor and 18,708 for Chair of the City Council. Republicans didn’t run for either of those offices in 2018.
