City of Dinuba

Dinuba City Council, District 2

This person would hold one of five district-elected seats on Dinuba's City Council. They vote on city laws, the budget, and land use. Dinuba is a Tulare County city of roughly 24,600 residents. The term is four years. Whoever gets the most votes wins, with no runoff. Dinuba is a Charter City. The Council picks one of its own members to serve as Mayor. It picks another as Vice Mayor. Voters do not elect either office directly. Terms are staggered. Districts 2, 3, and 4, this ballot's three seats, elect together. Districts 1 and 5 follow four years later.

Only one candidate qualified for this seat. Incumbent Maribel Reynosa appears unopposed. This contest is settled. Your vote here does not change the outcome.

This person would hold one of five district-elected seats on Dinuba's City Council. They vote on city ordinances, the budget, and land use for this roughly 24,600-resident Tulare County city, long known for its raisin and packing-house agricultural economy. The term is four years. Whoever gets the most votes wins -- there is no runoff. Dinuba is a Charter City; the Council selects one of its own members to serve as Mayor and another as Vice Mayor, rather than voters electing either office directly, and terms are staggered so Districts 2, 3, and 4 (this ballot's three seats) elect together, with Districts 1 and 5 following four years later.

With no opponent, the useful question is not who to choose but who Reynosa is -- and how little this dataset can independently verify about them beyond their official role. Reynosa has represented District 2 since at least the Council's December 2018 reorganization and is seeking to keep the seat for another 4-year term. Their filed ballot designation is simply "Incumbent," and no independent biography, campaign site, or local news coverage was found for them this pass.

Maribel Reynosa

Reynosa is the sitting District 2 Councilmember. The Dinuba City Council has five seats. Reynosa's ballot title is Incumbent. No background, job, platform, or campaign site was found for them. No local news story about them or this race was found.
