This page lists the candidates for office endorsed by Barack Obama. According to Politico, Obama had not traditionally endorsed candidates prior to the 2016 election, when he prepared a list of 150 candidates in state and federal elections he would endorse. The site reported that Obama's 2016 effort was "an unprecedented engagement all the way down-ballot for any president."[1]

Endorsements include official statements, appearances at campaign rallies, and direct participation in campaign ads and materials. Endorsements issued prior to a special election where the candidate is also running in a regularly scheduled election on the same day are counted as endorsements in both races.
