Although the Green Party and the Peace and Freedom Party have each endorsed their own candidate for Governor of California in the 2026 primary election, both parties have endorsed the same candidates for the other seven statewide offices. Those candidates met on November 30th 2025 to form the 2026 Left Unity Slate. Each candidate endorses all the others, and practical cooperation is planned in circulating petitions and campaigning.
These are the Left Unity Slate candidates, in the order the offices appear on the California ballot:
