Money Flowing Into Kern County Races

Money’s pouring into Kern County’s hot congressional races, with incumbents David Valadao and Vince Fong leading the fundraising charge — together pulling in over $7.3 million, much of it from across the country. Valadao’s campaign is a fundraising juggernaut, nearly hitting $3 million, mostly from small donors, while Fong’s haul tops $1 million, with over $700K from individuals. Their challengers, meanwhile, are struggling to match that scale — their funds mostly stay local, often in the hundreds to a few thousand dollars. As November approaches, who can raise the most cash — and from where — could be the real game-changer in these pivotal Central Valley seats.
