Riverside County Supervisors Unanimously Amend Campaign Donation Rules: Schools Superintendent Brought under $20,000 Individual Cap, Intercandidate Transfers Require Donor Written Consent

Tuesday, November 10, 2026 · California · GSM News

Riverside County, California — The Riverside County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved amendments to its campaign finance regulations bringing the county superintendent of schools under the same donation caps as other county officials, fixing what the board described as an oversight in the original rules.

Under the amendment, the superintendent is required to keep to a $20,000 individual donation cap. The cap applies to all individual donations in an election, though it does not prevent a candidate from giving more toward his or her own campaign.

Supervisors Jose Medina, Karen Spiegel, Yxstian Gutierrez and V. Manuel Perez approved the cap, with Supervisor Chuck Washington absent.

The board also approved banning transfers between candidates unless written consent is given by individual donors.

A county report prepared for the Tuesday meeting states that the changes specifically include the superintendent of schools as a county executive office subject to contribution limits, and that it was the board intent from the start to include the office in the ordinance first passed in November 2020, with the amendment made retroactive to that original date.

The superintendent office will be back on the ballot in 2026. Superintendent Edwin Gomez ran unopposed in 2022 after his original appointment in 2020.
