## On the ballot

- **Nancy Parent** — Incumbent

A nonpartisan office: candidates do not run as Democrats or Republicans, and no party appears on the ballot.

Only one candidate qualified for this seat. Incumbent City Treasurer Nancy Parent appears unopposed -- so this contest is settled and your vote here does not change the outcome.

Pittsburg's City Treasurer oversees the city's cash and investments and reports on its financial position. It's an elected, 4-year-term office, separate from the City Manager's day-to-day administrative and finance staff.

With no opponent, the useful question is not who to choose but what the officeholder has done and what to watch next. An unopposed return means accountability for this seat over the next four years runs through public records and the next election rather than through this ballot.

## Nancy Parent

The incumbent City Treasurer, unopposed for another term; Parent's filed ballot designation is simply "Incumbent." Independent local coverage from 2014 confirms they have held this office continuously since at least that election cycle -- more than a decade in the role. This dataset found no further biographical detail or 2026-specific platform coverage beyond that record.

**Strengths:** A long, independently confirmed tenure in the office -- more than a decade as of this cycle -- and no contested challenger this time.

**Trade-offs:** This dataset found no independent (non-official, non-campaign-finance) reporting evaluating Parent's record in the role.

**Keep in mind:** Running unopposed, they have had little occasion to file a contested campaign-finance disclosure; none was found in this pass.
