El Paso Taxpayer Revolt – ART FIERRO RAISED 99.8% OF HIS CAMPAIGN FUNDS FROM OUTSIDE HIS DISTRICT, ONLY $150 OF $66,742

Posted on November 12, 2026

[[{“value”:”

We analyzed the campaign finance reports of Art Fierro, who is running for reelection for Representative of City District 6, and were stunned to discover that 99.8% of his cash and in-kind contributions from July 1, 2025 through October 24, 2026 came from individuals residing outside his district.

Jose Lopez gave $150 and was the only contributor out of 38 who is a constituent of Rep. Fierro.

The remaining $66,592 came from individuals outside District 6, mostly from the Westside.

Fierro’s largest contributor was Richardo Marquez ($7,142 in-kind), followed by Woody Hunt ($6,000), the Realtors PAC ($5,000), Raymond Palacios ($4,500), Lisa Peisen ($4,000), and Richard Aguilar ($3,500).

No one can plausibly claim that Rep. Fierro represents the people of District 6.

He faces 25-year-old UTEP undergraduate Jesse Moreno in the runoff election of December 12.

We are not making an endorsement for this race.
