Impartial analysis

CITY OF FOLSOM City Attorney’s Impartial Analysis of Measure K Campaign contribution limits are rules set by governmental authorities to cap how much money donors can give to candidates running for office. In California, cities may set a limit on donations to candidates running for city council. In 1994, Folsom voters passed an initiative measure establishing a $150 per person per election limit on donations to candidates for City Council. This rule has not been updated since 1994. On July 14, 2026, the City Council voted to place Measure K on the November ballot. If passed by a majority of Folsom voters (50% + 1), Measure K would amend the Folsom Municipal Code to increase the campaign contribution limit applicable to candidates for Folsom City Council from $150 per person per election to $500 per person per election. Measure K sets an upper limit for donations. Any person may donate less than $500 per election to any candidate running for Folsom City Council. Measure K does not apply outside the City of Folsom, and it does not apply to any City election other than an election for Folsom City Council. For example, Measure K does not apply to ballot measures. A “yes” vote on Measure K will authorize an increase in the campaign contribution limit applicable to candidates for Folsom City Council from $150 to $500 per person per election. A “no” vote on Measure K will not authorize an increase in the campaign contribution limit applicable to candidates for Folsom City Council from $150 to $500 per person per election. The $150 per person per election campaign contribution limit will remain in place. The above statement is an impartial analysis of Measure K.
