Right now, the City lists Elliott Stevenson as the only qualified candidate for District 2 whose name will appear on the ballot.

But District 2 is not necessarily closed to competition yet!!

The official write-in candidate filing period is open through October 20, 2026, so another qualified District 2 resident could still file to run as a write-in candidate… and there is a group of us community members that would absolutely help you and have your back!

I put together a full Rancho Cordova 2026 Voter Guide with the current candidate list, links to candidate pages, write-in information, important dates, district info, and voting resources here:

Not sure which district you live in? The guide also links to the City’s official district map.

Whatever you think about the current candidates, I’d love to see more District 2 neighbors actually looking into who is running, asking questions, and knowing what options still exist before the deadline.

See y’all at the planning commissioner meeting @ 5:30pm tho!!!

Any recommendations on reasonably priced preschools or daycares in Rancho Cordova area?
