The campaign contributions for June's two county supervisor races continue to trickle in, with the numbers showing District 1 candidate John Gonsalves reporting having raised the most funds as of March 17.

According to California Fair Political Practices Commission rules, candidates for elective office in the state are required to file statements with the elections department of the county, detailing both the sources and the uses of campaign contributions. More reports are due May 22, covering the last two months before the June 3 election. Any contributions or expenditures of $1,000 or more after May 17 must be reported within 24 hours of their occurrence. Contributions are listed as either cash or in-kind, which can take many forms, including food, beverage, services and the like.

Of the four candidates in District 1, Gonsalves is the leading fundraiser with $18,618. Chief backers for the Gonsalves campaign include Stan Lukowicz; MP Associates of Ione; David Pier's explosives company; Katherine Woodthorp, an owner of property north of Drytown; and Charles Spinetta Winery, which contributed $1,830 worth of wine. District 1 candidate John Plasse raised $12,841. Among Plasse's contributors are livestock auctioneer Seth Seever; Jackson Planning Commissioner Letitia Sexton; and Deaver Wine, which contributed $543 in wine. Third in contributions and expenditures was Jackson Mayor Rosalie Pryor Escamilla, who has raised $2,220 in her race for the District 1 seat. Escamilla is supported by Jackson Planning Commissioner Terri Works and Victor and Toni Perata.

The fourth candidate in District 1, Ken Berry, listed no contributions or expenditures on the March filing.

In District 4, neither incumbent Supervisor Louis Boitano nor challenger David Pincus had yet claimed any monetary flow.
