On the ballot

This person would represent one of Lompoc's four council districts on the city's five-member City Council -- the citywide budget, land use, and oversight of city staff for this Santa Barbara County city of 44,444 residents (2020 Census), alongside a directly elected Mayor who is not part of this race. Council districts were last redrawn off the 2020 Census; this seat serves a four-year term.

Two candidates are running for Lompoc City Council, District 2: incumbent Victor Vega and challenger Sharlameigne Segovia. Vote for one -- no primary.

District 2 elects one member to a four-year term on Lompoc's five-member Council -- four district seats plus a directly elected, citywide Mayor who is not part of this race. Council districts were last redrawn off 2020 Census data by the state's April 2022 deadline, for this Santa Barbara County city of 44,444 residents (2020 Census).

Victor Vega has held this seat since 2014 and ran unopposed for it in 2022, so this is his first contested District 2 race since then.

Victor Vega

Victor Vega is the incumbent District 2 councilmember, first elected in 2014 and reelected without opposition in 2022. This dataset found no independent news coverage, campaign website, or filed candidate statement describing his occupation or specific council record beyond his tenure and 2022 unopposed reelection, as reported by Lompoc Record's own election-preview coverage.

Strengths

Held this seat since 2014 and was reelected unopposed in 2022 -- an unusually long, unbroken tenure for a district Council seat.

Trade-offs

No independent news coverage, campaign website, or candidate statement was found this pass describing his occupation or specific council record beyond his tenure.

Keep in mind

This is his first contested reelection since 2018. No campaign-finance filing was found for either District 2 candidate this pass (see Financial section).

Sharlameigne Segovia

Sharlameigne Segovia is challenging incumbent Victor Vega for the District 2 seat. Lompoc Record's own election-preview coverage names her as a qualified candidate; this dataset found no campaign website, filed candidate statement, campaign-finance filing, or independent news coverage describing her occupation or platform this pass.

Strengths

None independently confirmed by this pass beyond her name appearing as a qualified candidate in Lompoc Record's own election-preview coverage.

Trade-offs

No campaign website, filed candidate statement, campaign-finance filing, or independent news coverage describing her occupation or platform was found this pass.

Keep in mind

This is a documented sourcing gap, not a claim she lacks a platform. No campaign-finance filing was found for either District 2 candidate this pass (see Financial section).
