A Placer County school board candidate received a $10,000 campaign donation. Was it legal?
Briefly

“I'm here tonight to ask you to do no harm,” said Rex Carpenter during the Rocklin Unified School District Board meeting, advocating against policies requiring parental notification when students identify by different names or genders.
The recent controversy over school board policies has heightened public scrutiny regarding campaign financing, prompting voters to question the impact of large contributions on local elections.
California lacks a cap on campaign contributions for local school board candidates, leading to significant donations, such as a $10,000 contribution to a candidate in Rocklin.
A legislative attempt to impose a cap on school board contributions failed last year, leaving voters to consider the implications of unchecked campaign financing as elections approach.
