Prop 13 Still Counting

The vote was too close to call Tuesday night for the only statewide measure on California’s primary ballot: a $15 billion bond to repair and modernize aging schools, many of which are more than a half-century old and have issues ranging from leaky roofs and old wiring to toxic mold. With about half the state’s votes counted, the measure was losing 57% to 43%. Those numbers could tighten as ballots continue to be counted. Prop 13 only needs a simple majority to pass.
