Campaign Fundraising for Delano campaigns means donor research, call-time discipline, finance plans, and FPPC-ready reporting — sized to the Kern County voter universe rather than a national template. Delano has roughly 53,000 residents and 17,000 registered voters, which puts most local races inside a small-universe playbook where campaign fundraising is decisive. Delano's history as the birthplace of the farm workers' movement with Cesar Chavez and Larry Itliong creates a politically engaged community. Agricultural labor rights, water allocation, and the presence of two state prisons shape every campaign cycle. Our campaign fundraising program supports Delano candidates running for Delano City Council (5 members) and Delano Joint Union High School District, plus county and ballot-measure efforts in Kern County.
