In Placer County’s District 2, what started as a standard June supervisor primary has turned into something closer to a neighborhood grudge match. Incumbent Supervisor Shanti Landon is facing off against Lincoln City Councilmember Holly Andreatta, and the contest now features not just fundraising contrasts but a personal dust-up at a local GOP event that ended up in a sheriff’s incident report. With the June 2 primary coming up, voters in Lincoln, Sheridan and west Roseville are sorting through competing arguments about growth, public safety and how transparent their local leaders really are.
Fundraising edge for the incumbent
Landon currently holds a clear money lead. Between July 1 and April 18, she reported roughly $152,277 raised and $113,726 cash on hand, compared with Andreatta’s approximately $80,340 raised and $33,710 on hand. According to the Sacramento Bee, Landon has outspent Andreatta in 2026 by nearly two to one, a gap that has helped the incumbent expand paid outreach throughout the district.
Who they are and who backs them
Both candidates lean hard on local roots and records in public service. Landon, who took office in 2022 after serving as a district director, highlights endorsements from first responder groups and business PACs, and she lists them in filings with Placer County Elections and on her campaign site, Shanti Landon for Supervisor.
Andreatta, a Lincoln councilmember since 2018 who served as mayor in 2022 and 2025, leans into education and faith-based leadership on her campaign site, Holly Andreatta for Supervisor. The rivalry between the two was already simmering after a 2024 dispute over a proposed medical respite project in Lincoln, which city officials said did not receive proper notice. The City of Lincoln laid out those concerns in a public release.
March confrontation added heat
The race turned more personal after a March Republican Party event in Roseville, where Landon filed an incident report alleging that Andreatta threw a packet of papers at her. Landon did not press charges but asked deputies to document what happened. The account, released following a public records request and summarized by the Sacramento Bee, describes conflicting versions of the same moment. Andreatta said she tossed the papers toward Landon’s lap. Landon and two witnesses told deputies the papers hit Landon in the face.
Operatives in both camps now treat the episode as standard-issue talking point material, one more storyline to frame the other candidate as the problematic one before ballots are counted.
What District 2 voters should watch
District 2 covers Lincoln, Sheridan and the west side of Roseville, and the June 2 primary is expected to hinge on which voters actually show up on election day. Placer County’s official candidate materials list both Shanti Landon and Holly Andreatta on the June ballot and include filing details and deadlines for the race, as outlined in the county’s candidate packet for the June 2 primary.
With a clear spending gap, the outcome now rests on ground organization, local endorsements and which messages about development and public safety land with voters. Expect more targeted mailers and a flurry of local appearances as election day gets closer. Whether Landon’s cash advantage wins over enough voters, or Andreatta’s local networks drive stronger turnout, will decide who represents this part of Placer County for the next four years.
