SAN DIEGO, CA — Voters in a region featuring four major cities and a military facility will choose Nov. 3 between the San Marcos mayor and a Democratic Party official as the new San Diego County District 5 supervisor.
Rebecca Jones and Kyle Krahel emerged from the June primary as the top two contenders for the seat, which is being vacated by termed-out Supervisor Jim Desmond.
County government is the main provider of services, such as law enforcement and public health, for unincorporated communities.
The Board of Supervisors is considered a nonpartisan governing body, although ideological divisions have flared up at times since 2020.
Jones, a Republican, has been San Marcos' mayor since December 2018. She previously served on the City Council for 11 years.
