About

Jose Guerra qualified for the November 3, 2026 ballot as a candidate for Salinas City Council District 2, challenging incumbent Tony Barrera, according to the Monterey County Elections candidate list.

As of August 26, 2026, the county’s candidate filing lists no ballot designation, no candidate statement, and no public campaign contact information for Guerra. This profile will be updated as verified information becomes available.

Guerra’s campaign committee, Guerra For City Council 2026, filed its initial Statement of Organization (FPPC Form 410) with the City of Salinas City Clerk, received September 4, 2026. The form lists it as a controlled committee for City Council District 2 that had not yet qualified (it had not yet reached the contribution amount that makes a committee qualified). No campaign statement (Form 460) from this committee is in the files this site used, so no 2026 contribution figures are shown.

Candidacy verified via the Monterey County Elections November 3, 2026 Candidate List, accessed August 26, 2026. Committee registration: Form 410 received by the City Clerk on September 4, 2026, from the City of Salinas NetFile public portal.

Questionnaire responses retain their substance; clearly marked formatting or safety redactions may be made. Candidates the project contacts in the same covered race receive the same questions, but not necessarily on the same date; the invitation and response status above reflects the project’s outreach log.

Terms on this page

Plain-language meanings from the site glossary. The official labels stay as filed.

Unavailable (not zero)
Shown when a figure could not be established from the filings used here, such as when no committee was matched to a candidate or a committee has no 2026 full statement. It does not mean zero dollars.
Monetary contributions
Money a committee reported receiving as contributions: the Schedule A total, itemized plus unitemized amounts (Summary line 1). New loans and in-kind contributions are not included. It can include loan forgiveness, so it is not always all new cash.

About these numbers

  1. Each 2026 figure is its own measure. The 2026 figures are not added together, within a committee or across committees.
  2. Unavailable (not zero): Shown when a figure could not be established from the filings used here, such as when no committee was matched to a candidate or a committee has no 2026 full statement. It does not mean zero dollars.
  3. Names withheld: individual contributors below the disclosure threshold are pooled into one row. Pooled amounts remain in funding totals.
  4. Loans, in-kind support and contributions reported after a committee’s last full statement are shown separately from monetary contributions.
  5. Reports filed after the export date may be missing. Check the City’s NetFile portal for newer filings.
  6. Positions of ballot-measure committees are as their filings or the City’s portal state them. They are not endorsements by Transparent Salinas.
