  • CY Benavides didn’t pay his taxes. The City and school district had to sue him 10 times just to collect. On May 26, voters decide if that’s who should be in charge of our county.

  • Did you know CY Benavides didn’t pay his taxes? The City and school district had to sue him 10 times just to collect. This, after taxpayers had to spend $20 million to bail out CY's failed toll road project. When taxes don’t get paid, the community loses. Schools. Hospitals. First responders. Don’t put CY Benavides in charge of a community he shortchanges at every opportunity.

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
