KEVIN FIRST. SHASTA COUNTY SECOND.
District 1 deserves steady, accountable leadership. Leadership that puts people first, NOT personal agendas. That’s what true representation should look like.
Yet over the past several years, too many decisions at the county level have felt driven by one priority:
Kevin first.
His priorities
His fights
His agenda
Too often, Shasta County families are left paying the price.
We deserve leadership grounded in service, not ego.
During his time in office, Kevin Crye has tied Shasta County to costly political fights that never should have happened.
His leadership has cost Shasta County more than $5 million. Money that should have been used to strengthen public safety, behavioral health, and critical county services.
He pushed to eliminate trusted voting systems based on unproven fraud claims, a move projected to cost taxpayers an additional $1.65 million per statewide election.
He supported legally questionable election changes and backed poorly negotiated agreements, resulting in major lawsuits and state intervention costing the county hundreds of thousands of dollars.
All while real priorities were left waiting.

DISTRICT 1 DESERVES BETTER
Nearly half of District 1 voters supported a recall effort in 2024. That tells a clear story: trust has been shaken.
Our county needs steady leadership focused on restoring confidence, not more political drama.
District 1 Needs a Supervisor Who Will Focus On:
-
Expanding behavioral health capacity
-
Strengthening public safety
-
Protecting taxpayers through responsible budgeting
-
Restoring transparency in county decision-making
