People are sleeping on the sand in Santa Monica tonight, and the longer they stay out here, the shorter their lives get. Walking past them is not kindness. Real compassion is intervention: outreach, treatment, a way off the beach. I'm Alex Villanueva, and I'm running for Sheriff of LA County to actually do something about it.

In 2018 I sat in your living rooms and told you what I was going to do. Then I did it. Body-worn cameras. ICE out of the jails. A deficit turned into a surplus. More outreach teams on the street, and encampments resolved in a way that brought neighbors together instead of against each other. What you voted for in 2018 is on the ballot again in 2026.

Venice Boardwalk. Olvera Street. Parks and public spaces across LA County. We cleaned them up. Without arrests. Without force. We got people into the shelter and services they actually needed. Regulating public space isn't optional. It's the job of local government and law enforcement. Period. Public spaces belong to the public. Your county. Your safety. Rescue. Rebuild. Restore.

Are you better off today than you were four years ago? On public safety, the answer is no. Unsafe streets. Stores pillaged. A homeless industrial complex profiting off keeping people on the sidewalk instead of getting them help. It's time for steady, proven leadership. Your county. Your safety. Rescue. Rebuild. Restore.

Son of a Puerto Rican father and a Polish-American mother. Raised between upstate New York and Puerto Rico. 43 years in LA. 36 of them with the LA County Sheriff's Department. The 33rd Sheriff of LA County. Public service has been the greatest honor of my life. Now I'm asking for the chance to finish what we started. Your county. Your safety. Rescue. Rebuild. Restore.

Speaking the truth is easy. Living with the consequences is the hard part. When I was a sergeant, I called out corruption inside my own department. Publicly. The Sheriff and Undersheriff at the time were both convicted. Corruption. Obstruction of justice. As Sheriff, I didn't just talk about accountability. I built it. We put body cameras on every patrol deputy in LA County. We disciplined nearly a thousand personnel and discharged more than 130 for misconduct. A sheriff's job is to hold ever

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.
