California voters have rejected Prop 32, which would have raised the state’s minimum wage from $16 to $18.
With 100% of the ballots tallied, the measure was rejected by a 0.8% margin (50.8 - 49.2), according to the California Secretary of State’s office. The total vote difference for the proposition was 234,146.
I’m sure they say a lot of things, but when it comes down to it, they likely vote for people who are fighting against raising the minimum wage. And if it came down to a ballot initiative, they would vote against it.
