State of California
Member of the State Assembly, District 50
This person holds your district's seat in the California State Assembly (2-year term).
Assemblymember Robert Garcia took 58.2% of the June 2 vote. Republican Victoria Viveros Mageno took 38.7% and advanced to November. The district covers part of the eastern San Gabriel 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. Committee assignment is where most of the leverage sits, and it is handed out by the majority's leadership.
The incumbent took 58.2%, a middling showing by the standards of this ballot, against a challenger with no reported campaign funding. That combination — a sitting member well under two-thirds against an unfunded opponent — is worth noting as a signal about the district rather than about either candidate.
Robert Garcia
Robert Garcia is the Democratic Assemblymember for the 50th District. He was first elected in 2024. Before Sacramento, he spent more than twenty years as a teacher and school administrator. He joined the Etiwanda School District board in 2016. He later became board president. Under his leadership, the district won the state's top school award twice.
Garcia says education is what led him to Sacramento. He says it can strengthen communities and create opportunity, per his official website. In 2025 he broke from most of his own party on a school antisemitism bill. He abstained from the final vote. He said the bill "reinforces broader national trends of silencing constitutionally protected speech," per CalMatters.
He promises safer neighborhoods and fully funded public schools. He also promises less homelessness and good-paying jobs. And he wants to support small businesses in the Inland Empire, per his official website.

1Victoria Viveros Mageno has no contributions reported to Cal-Access for this race.
2Figures 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.
3Victoria Viveros Mageno has no itemized contributions dated after the June 2, 2026 primary reported to Cal-Access yet.
4Total 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.
