What began as a political alliance has shifted into a head-to-head race, with incumbent Supervisor Shanti Landon facing Lincoln City Councilmember Holly Andreatta in the June primary for Placer County’s 2nd District.

In 2022, Andreatta endorsed Landon for the supervisor seat — now they are running against each other.

The head-to-head battle between the two candidates began in 2024 when community members of Lincoln were shocked by the announcement of a medical respite center coming to downtown near multiple schools.

Lincoln officials, including Andreatta, alleged the organization did not properly disclose its project to them. Both Landon and Andreatta have been accused of withholding information about the project.

In May 2025, Andreatta announced she was running, stating a need for strong leadership at the county level.

Since then, early campaign filings show from December show that Landon has raised twice as much money as her challenger.

Landon filed an incident report against Andreatta alleging she threw papers in her face at a local Republican Party event in March, though she declined to press charges, according to the Placer County Sheriff’s Office.

Where is the district?

The 2nd District represents the residents of Lincoln, Sheridan and west Roseville.

Who are the candidates?

Landon is the incumbent. She stepped into her supervisor role in 2022 after serving as the 2nd District director to Placer County Supervisor Robert Weygandt.

Prior to her Placer County government days, she ran a blog titled “Life Made Full” that was dedicated to gluten-free recipes and lifestyle posts.

Andreatta has been a Lincoln city council member since 2018. She served as mayor in 2022 and 2025.

She is an ordained minister with the Assemblies of God and the associate pastor at Lincoln Christian Life Center.

She is an advancement officer at Jessup University. She is also an adjunct professor at Epic Bible College and Graduate School. Prior to that, she was a teacher for 30 years.

Who is funding the races?

Landon has raised twice as much money as Andreatta, according to early campaign filings.

Landon had raised $152,277 and reported $113,726 cash on hand between July 1 and April 18. Andreatta had raised $80,340 between July 1 and April 18 and reported $33,710 cash on hand, according to the latest campaign finance documents filed with the county.

Landon has outspent Andreatta in 2026 by nearly 2-1, the latest finance reports show.

According to campaign filings, Landon’s donations have largely come from police unions and business groups, including contributions from the Sacramento Metropolitan Chamber PAC, Cal Fire Local 2881, Placer Business Alliance and the Roseville Area Business Political Action Committee in April filings.

Andreatta’s support has mostly come from churches and farms, along with individual donors and small business owners, including a $2,500 contribution from a Granite Bay airport developer and multiple smaller donations from local real estate and medical professionals in recent filings.

Both candidates received donations from Sacramento Area Firefighters Local 522, though Landon received a higher amount and the union’s endorsement. Landon received $3,900 while Andreatta received at least $1,500 in a recent April filing, bringing her total support from the union higher than earlier reports.

While the Placer County Board of Supervisors is nonpartisan, both campaigns have donated to Republican candidates and groups.

Andreatta’s campaign has contributed to the reelection campaign of Assemblymember Joe Patterson, R-Rocklin, as well as Dom Belza, a Republican running for state Assembly.

Landon’s campaign has donated to the Placer County Republican Party and the campaign of state Sen. Roger Niello, R-Fair Oaks.
