Our Endorsements for 2026

As voters consider their choices in the upcoming 2026 election, CEPS is proud to endorse these Santa Monica community leaders who have demonstrated that they make education a top priority. We believe these candidates will make certain that support for education and public schools, including after-school programs, early childhood education, and post-secondary public education, will be public investment priorities.

All CEPS endorsees have expressed their support for Measure ES.

Check back later this summer for additional endorsement information.
