With Richmond’s June primary just weeks away, voters across the city have a bevy of questions not only concerning who the candidates are, but also who is running in each district and what the newly adopted rules mean for election outcomes.

With these questions in mind, *Grandview* has created an easy-to-use interactive map illustrating the voting districts, candidates, and links to in-depth interviews we conducted with those running in both the city council and the mayor's race.
