JSON DeserializeObject error for a string and an object (array) - json.net

Question

This is my JSON value
{ "spatialReference":
{ "wkid": 4326, "latestWkid": 4326 },
"candidates":
[
{ "address": "380 New York St, Redlands, California, 92373", "location": { "x": -117.19564110200449, "y": 34.057084093752607 }, "score": 99.890000000000001, "attributes": { } },
{ "address": "380 New York St, Redlands, California, 92373", "location": { "x": -117.19564235064003, "y": 34.057118309276547 }, "score": 99.890000000000001, "attributes": { } },
{ "address": "381 New York St, Redlands, California, 92373", "location": { "x": -117.19570747666533, "y": 34.057117640108572 }, "score": 78.890000000000001, "attributes": { } },
{ "address": "New York St, Redlands, California, 92373", "location": { "x": -117.19564313410432, "y": 34.054959327808675 }, "score": 99.890000000000001, "attributes": { } },
{ "address": "92373, Redlands, California", "location": { "x": -117.18448413080158, "y": 34.042938592774277 }, "score": 100, "attributes": { } },
{ "address": "Redlands, California", "location": { "x": -117.18259971082223, "y": 34.055564407815503 }, "score": 98.780000000000001, "attributes": { } }
]
}
This is code:
public class CanAttributes
{
public string StreetName { get; set; }
public string StreetType { get; set; }
}
public class Candidates
{
[JsonProperty("address")]
public string Address { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("location")]
public GeoLocation Location { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("score")]
public decimal Score { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("attributes")]
public CanAttributes Attributes { get; set; }
}
public class jsCandidates
{
[JsonProperty("spatialReference")]
public string spatialReference { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("candidates")]
public Candidates[] candidates { get; set; }
}
public class GeoLocation
{
[JsonProperty("x")]
public decimal X { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("y")]
public decimal Y { get; set; }
}
jsCandidates canArray = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<jsCandidates>(str);
It gives me "Error reading string. Unexpected token: StartObject. Path 'spatialReference', line 2, position 23" when I tried to deserialized the above json value.
Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

Not string, you should change to object.
public string spatialReference { get; set; }
Or this instead:
public class SpatialReference
{
public int wkid { get; set; }
public int latestWkid { get; set; }
}
