Proposition 1 is a measure on the March ballot that would shift much of California’s millionaires tax for mental health services towards housing for people with mental illness. It also approves a nearly $6.4 billion bond to add more beds in psychiatric facilities as well as supportive housing.
A Note On The Results
-
Keep in mind that in tight races particularly, the winner may not be determined for days or weeks after Election Day. In Los Angeles County, the first batch of results released includes vote-by-mail ballots received before March 5, followed by early votes cast in-person at vote centers, then votes cast in-person on Election Day.
-
The results you see are the votes counted through March 29, when they were certified.
-
As of March 29, here's where the vote count stands:
-
Total count to date:
- 1,641,715 (28.9% of registered voters)
-
Estimate still to be counted: 0
-
Note: In California, ballots postmarked on or before March 5 are counted toward the results as long as they arrive within seven days of the election (March 12). Results must be certified by county election officials by April 4.

How We're Covering This Election
-
Early voters and mail-in ballots have fundamentally reshaped how votes are counted and when election results are known.
-
Our priority will be sharing outcomes and election calls only when they have been thoroughly checked and vetted. To that end, we will report when candidates concede and otherwise rely on NPR and The Associated Press for race calls. We will not report the calls or projections of other news outlets. You can find more on NPR and The AP's process for counting votes and calling races here, here and here.
