California 2026 state ballot propositions

Overview

In the lead-up to the November 2026 general election, California voters are set to decide on a wide array of state propositions.

Initial focus included Proposition 4, which seeks to allow state and local governments to establish public campaign financing programs to reduce the influence of large donors, and Proposition 5, a measure authored by State Senator Josh Newman to reform the recall election process by separating the removal of an official from the selection of a replacement.

The scope of the election includes a total of 14 propositions, comprising five legislative proposals and nine citizen initiatives. These measures address diverse policy areas such as taxation, housing, healthcare, and education. Notable proposals include a 5% extraordinary tax on fortunes exceeding $1 billion, new voter identification requirements, and significant bond measures for housing, such as Proposition 1 for affordable housing and Proposition 37 for a middle-income mortgage program.
