The SB County GOP (filed as the San Bernardino County Republican Central Committee) reported receiving $428,000 from two Previti companies, 2020–2026: $245,000 from FH II Homebuilders / FH II, LLC (Previti's homebuilding company) and $183,000 from Industrial Integrity Solutions (IIS), Previti's marijuana (cannabis) company. [S-282, S-283]
The IIS payments

Party money to officials after the IIS money arrived*
After the IIS money arrived in May 2026, the party gave to these officials' campaigns (“given”) and paid for its own mailers for them (“spent”). The party's account pools money from many donors, so this shows timing, not which dollars were passed on.
* Timing only. Sources: [S-240, S-241]. Party gifts to the Armendarez campaign came before the IIS money arrived, so they are not counted here.
Endorsing in nonpartisan races
Parties may not nominate candidates for city offices [S-306]. The state Republican Party's bylaws let it endorse “a Republican candidate for local non-partisan office” [S-303], and the SB County GOP tells would-be candidates that Step One is to “Confirm that you are a registered Republican” [S-305]. In 2026 the SB County GOP endorsed Lynne Kennedy for Mayor [S-300].
Statements for voters
- Once money goes into a political group's account, it's pooled with other donations, so no one can say exactly how many of the marijuana dollars reached each candidate. But routing money through a political party or a PAC doesn't change where it came from. The marijuana company's money went in, and the money to these candidates came out of the same accounts.
- From 2016 through 2025, records show no SB County GOP money in Lynne Kennedy's campaigns. Then in 2026, the year the party took $183,000 from Previti's marijuana company, it endorsed her and started funding her campaign. The party's support and the marijuana money arrived in the same year.
