Proven relationships. Trusted leadership. Real results for Merced County.



Public Safety:

Daron McDaniel has always stood firmly behind the men and women who keep Merced County safe. He’s delivered competitive pay increases and fought to give law enforcement the tools they need all while responsibly managing taxpayer dollars. With public safety making up 80% of the County’s discretionary budget, Daron ensures resources are prioritized wisely to keep our communities safe without compromising fiscal responsibility.


Quality of Life:

Daron McDaniel believes every family in Merced County deserves safe neighborhoods, strong schools, and great places to live and play.
