A political dispute has emerged in San Diego County over whether to proceed with a final budget vote while the District 1 supervisor seat remains vacant.
Imperial Beach Mayor Paloma Aguirre and two Democratic candidates for the seat are urging the county to delay the vote until the vacancy is filled. They argue that moving forward without full representation undermines the democratic process, especially since the seat could determine partisan control of the Board of Supervisors. The race to replace former Supervisor Nora Vargas is in its final stages, with South County voters playing a pivotal role.
The outcome could significantly influence the county's political direction and budget priorities.
