Los Angeles County Supervisor Kathryn Barger announced Tuesday she has raised $715,000 for her 2024 re-election campaign for Fifth District County Supervisor which represents the Santa Clarita Valley, far outpacing all other candidates.

The announcement comes at the mid-year reporting deadline.

“I truly appreciate the support I have received across the board from our Fifth District community,” Barger said. “Many of my supporters do not regularly give to political campaigns, which makes reaching this amount at this time all the more special. I am very grateful that so many of our neighbors have invested in our campaign.”

Supervisor Barger has raised $650,000 of her funds from within Los Angeles County, according to officials.

A majority of her support was from individual donors, not special interests or political action committees.

She also currently has the most cash on hand of any candidate, with $650,000, according to officials.

“I have committed my three-decade-long county career to working with all stakeholders including business, labor, Republicans and Democrats alike. The support I have received reflects that commitment,” Barger said. “People are tired of partisan politics and just want common sense solutions. I have consistently put people and solutions over party — and I’m proud of that.”

Today’s resounding fundraising announcement builds on the already strong momentum Supervisor Barger’s campaign has developed, with endorsements from mayors and bi-partisan elected leaders from across the Fifth District.

Supervisor Barger is also endorsed by business, labor and dozens of other community groups.

The next finance reporting deadline is December 31, 2023.
