California election results: Where each of the propositions stand

Eric Ting, Joshua Bote, Alex Shultz

Here's which California propositions are on track to pass or fail:

There are no close races in California's slate of propositions. With 94.5% of precincts reporting at least some results as of 5 a.m. Wednesday, each race is all but decided. Here's where things stand for each proposition:

Proposition 1, which codifies the constitutional right to abortion and contraceptive access in California, is passing by a margin of 65.2% to 34.8%.

Proposition 26, which would legalize sports gambling on tribal lands, got a no vote from a whopping 70.1% of voters.

Proposition 27, which would legalize online sports betting, is doing even worse. Almost 84% of voters are rejecting it.

Proposition 28, which would fund public school arts and music programs, got a yes vote from 61.6% of voters.

Proposition 29, which would add additional regulation to dialysis clinics, is losing. Nearly 70% of votes counted were in the "no" camp.

Proposition 30, which would add a tax to fund electric vehicles, is the closest race of the bunch. So far, 41% have voted yes and 59% have voted no.

Proposition 31, which would extend the ban on certain flavored tobacco products, is on track to pass with 62.4% of voters voting yes.

According to California Target Book research director Rob Pyers, Prop 27's drubbing may be one for the record books. 

"California's Prop 27 is hovering around 84% No, which would rank it as the sixth-worst blowout for a ballot question out of over a century's worth of initiatives," Pyers posted on Twitter.
