San Joaquin County Supervisor Robert Rickman raised $146,000 toward his re-election effort as of the June 30 fundraising report deadline.

Rickman was first elected in 2020 and recently announced his re-election bid accompanied by dozens of local San Joaquin County endorsements. 
He is running in the March 5, 2024 to represent Ripon, rural south Manteca, Escalon, Tracy, and Mountain House.

Rickman also announced a re-election endorsement from Congressman John Duarte.

Congressman Duarte is a fourth-generation farmer currently serving on the House Agriculture, Natural Resources, and Transportation and Infrastructure Committees.

"I am grateful for Congressman Duarte's support and the support of so many across our agriculture community. In San Joaquin County, we are blessed with a tremendous resource that we need to ensure will be a vibrant industry and provide jobs for generations to come," noted Supervisor Rickman regarding the endorsement.
