Herb W Morgan

Republican

Running for: Controller · California

Chief Investment Officer

In their own words

The State Controller does not set policy. The Controller is tasked with ensuring efficiency in state government through pre-audits and approval of expenditures, followed by rigorous post-audits that verify performance and proper use of funds.

In the candidate's own words, from the California Official Voter Information Guide, November 3, 2026 General Election: Candidate Statements, p. 4. Statements aren't fact-checked by the elections office or by us.

“Morgan is running on the promise of exposing fraud in government at a time when the Trump administration also is leveling fraud accusations against California. Morgan founded an investment firm in San Diego that was later acquired by Cantor Fitzgerald Investment Advisors.” (CalMatters via LAist)
