加利福尼亚州河滨县监事会全票修正竞选捐款规则：县学校总监纳入2万美元个人捐款上限、候选人间转账须捐款人书面同意
加利福尼亚州河滨县 — 河滨县监事会全票通过竞选财务条例修正案，把县学校总监纳入与其他县级官员相同的竞选捐款上限，修正该县所称原条例的一处疏漏。
修正后，县学校总监须遵守 2 万美元的个人捐款上限。该上限适用于一次选举中的全部个人捐款，但不限制候选人向本人竞选投入更多资金。
投赞成票的监事为何塞·梅迪纳、卡伦·斯皮格尔、伊克斯蒂安·古铁雷斯与 V·曼努埃尔·佩雷斯，监事查克·华盛顿缺席。
监事会同时批准禁止候选人之间相互转账，除非取得个人捐款人的书面同意。
为周二会议准备的县报告写明，修正明确把学校总监列为县行政职位，从而适用竞选捐款限制，并称监事会自始即有意把该职位纳入 2020 年 11 月最初通过的上限条例，此次修正具追溯效力，追溯至原条例通过之日。
县学校总监职位将于 2026 年再次选举。现任总监埃德温·戈麦斯 2020 年获任命后，于 2022 年在无对手情况下当选。
Riverside County Supervisors Unanimously Amend Campaign Donation Rules: Schools Superintendent Brought under $20,000 Individual Cap, Intercandidate Transfers Require Donor Written Consent
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.
