Official state voter guides will soon arrive in the mail, followed by the ballots you can fill out and return if you’re not in the mood for in-person voting. Here’s what you need to know:
California’s November election will feature seven statewide ballot measures.
Proposition 31 would ban the sale of most flavored tobacco products. Tobacco companies have spent tens of millions of dollars opposing the effort. Though abortion rights are sacrosanct in California, the Legislature voted to put an amendment to the state’s constitution on the November ballot after the Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade. Proposition 1 would explicitly protect the right to abortion in California.
Voters will be asked — for a third time — if they want greater oversight of kidney dialysis centers. Proposition 29 would require clinics to have a physician, nurse practitioner or physician’s assistant on premises during treatment hours.https://registertovote.ca.gov/
