Downtown San Bernardino was once the vibrant heart of our city. Today, with an empty City Hall and 40 silent acres at the former Carousel Mall, it feels forgotten. Boarded-up businesses don't have to be our future. Together, we can rebuild, restore, and revive San Bernardino for our children. I am running to bring real investment and a community we are proud to call home. 🗳️ Vote Ron Alvarado for Ward 1 Councilman on or before June 2nd. Let’s build a better tomorrow.

The westside of San Bernardino is built on pride, tradition, and community. When families come together, it's what keeps our neighborhoods strong and vibrant. I'm proud to support the arts and culture that bring our community to life-and grateful for the everyday heroes, such as the Suavesitos car club, who keep these traditions going.

We don't have to accept decline as our future. We can rebuild our neighborhoods, restore our parks, and bring integrity back to City Hall. Spoke at tonight’s City Council meeting to share our vision for Ward 1! As a lifelong San Bernardino resident, County fraud investigator, Parks Commission Chair, and local neighborhood president, I’m running to make government work for the people—not special interests or corporate landlords. We need real accountability, aggressive code enforcement, saf

If a politician will look you in the eye and lie about something everyone can see, what else are they lying about? Tonight was the final City Council meeting before election day, and I took to the podium to call out the blatant lies and failed leadership rotting the First Ward. While our current council member stages political theater, our neighborhoods are paying the price: • An abandoned building in the 1st ward caught fire, costing a human life. • Critical safety building codes keep getting

Our downtown has witnessed devastation, crumbling to the ground and engulfed in flames due to the failures of our current leadership under Councilman Sanchez. We can no longer stand by and accept this. Revitalizing our downtown will be my top priority upon being elected by our community. Thank you @vivalaboba for looking out for our community.

Change will never come from looking in the rearview mirror, it comes from building a city that actually works for its residents. Here's a clip from my recent candidate interview with the Civic Engagement Project, where we discussed what real accountability, neighborhood investment, and tangible results look like for Ward 1 over the next four years. From revitalizing our public parks and fixing broken streetlights to bringing real transparency to City Hall and creating opportunities for the next

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.
