State of California

Member of the State Assembly, District 4

This person holds your district's seat in the California State Assembly (2-year term).

Only one candidate filed for this seat. Assemblymember Cecilia M. Aguiar-Curry was the sole name on the June 2 primary ballot. She took 100% of the vote and is unopposed in November. This contest is settled, so your vote here does not change the outcome. The district covers Napa, Lake and Yolo counties and part of the northern Sacramento Valley.

The winner holds one of 80 Assembly seats for a two-year term, inside a 12-year lifetime cap on service in Sacramento. An Assemblymember authors bills, sits on the policy committees that decide which bills advance, and argues for the district's share of the annual state budget. Seniority compounds: a member several terms in chairs committees and shapes which bills reach a floor vote at all.

With no opponent, the useful question is not who to choose but what to expect and what to watch. An unopposed return means accountability for this seat over the next two years will come from constituents and the press rather than from the ballot. The record below is what she did with the last term.

Cecilia M. Aguiar-Curry

Cecilia M. Aguiar-Curry is the Democratic Assemblymember for District 4. She grew up working in agriculture. As a kid she picked apricots and worked in walnut orchards. Today she co-owns an 80-acre walnut orchard with her brother. Before the Legislature she was the first woman elected mayor of Winters. She is the Assembly's majority leader and co-chairs its Select Committee on Child Care Costs.

She says she wants to keep faith with her values even when the political mood shifts. She has told colleagues that a change in the White House shouldn't change the state's principles. Her colleagues elected her Assembly majority leader and chair of the Legislative Women's Caucus. Those posts put her in the room when Democrats decide which bills move forward.

She promises to keep working on affordable child care for young children, maternal health care, and equal pay protections for women. She also lists clean air and stronger rural representation in Sacramento among her priorities.

Figures are CA Form 460 filings through June 30, 2026 by committees controlled by each candidate, and can include transfers from a candidate's earlier committees. Semi-annual reports covering January–June 2026 were due July 31, 2026, so some totals lag a period behind. Per the California Secretary of State's Cal-Access raw data export, retrieved 2026-09-21.

Total is itemized (Schedule A) contributions and self-funding loans dated after the June 2, 2026 primary, through June 30, 2026 — small-dollar unitemized (under $100) contributions aren't independently dated in Cal-Access's raw export, so they aren't reflected here and this may undercount true small-donor activity since the primary. This also doesn't include money reported only on 24-hour late-contribution reports (Form 497) that haven't yet appeared in a periodic Form 460 filing. Per the California Secretary of State's Cal-Access raw data export, retrieved 2026-08-30.
