Santa Paula Presidential History |

|
Santa Paula's history with U.S. Presidents and presidential candidates does not begin with Senator Arnold Vinick.
On April 25, 1891 (or there is one report that it was April 24, 1891), President Benjamin Harrison came to Santa Paula in a special four car train. He reached Santa Paula about 2:30 PM where a large and enthusiastic crowd appeared at the depot. Samples of the county's beans were presented and also a miniature oil rig executed in various colored roses. The President said a few words and the train was off to Ventura.
President William McKinley

Santa Paula looks forward to welcoming its third President, Senator Arnold Vinick. |
