Three California propositions passed in midterm elections

The ballot had a total of seven state measures to decide on, not including municipal election measures.

Out of the seven proposed propositions, only Proposition 1, Proposition 28 and Proposition 31 were passed by California voters during the midterm elections.

Proposition 1 passed with an overwhelming majority of 68.72% of the vote. The passage of this proposition will amend the California Constitution to explicitly protect reproductive rights across the state of California.

Reproductive rights entail the fundamental right to abortion as well as the right to accept or refuse contraception. With the overturning of Roe v. Wade, a majority of Californians cast their ballots to show their support of reproductive rights and reinforce our State Constitution as well as its protections.
