This person would represent District 5 on Campbell's five-member City Council. The council sets city ordinances, the budget, and land use. Campbell is a Santa Clara County city of about 44,000 residents. Its nickname is "The Orchard City." Council members are elected by district to staggered four-year terms. Each year the council picks one of its own members to hold the Mayor title. Voters do not elect the Mayor separately. Districts 1 and 2 aren't up again until 2028.

This seat is open because sitting councilmember Anne Bybee did not file for reelection in 2026. She was first elected to District 5 in 2018 and re-elected in 2022. Her reasons are not known here. A second name, Joseph Ruggero, filed only an FPPC Form 501 candidate-intention statement on March 11, 2026. He never had nomination papers issued or returned on the city's candidate-status page. So he never became a qualified candidate. Sorabji qualified on July 31, 2026. That was before the regular nomination period closed on August 7.

Daraius Sorabji

Daraius Sorabji is the only candidate for this seat. They qualified for the ballot on July 31, 2026. No ballot title was found. No campaign website was found. No news story about them turned up.
