Santa Barbara County Supervisor Steve Lavagnino endorses Cunningham for Assembly

Templeton, CA— Former Deputy District Attorney and candidate for Assembly, Jordan Cunningham has received the endorsement of Santa Barbara County Supervisor, Steve Lavagnino.

“Jordan is a proven leader who will provide us with a voice in Sacramento,” said Lavagnino. “He shares my problem-solving approach to issues. I look forward to working with Jordan to make sure the Central Coast remains one of the best places to live, work and raise our families.”

Born and raised in San Luis Obispo County, Cunningham returned to the area in 2010 and became a Deputy District Attorney.
