“Californians are projected to vote against a minimum wage boost in the state, giving a ‘no’ to Proposition 32, according to an Associated Press race call on Tuesday. Proposition 32 would have raised the minimum wage for any business with 26 or more employees to $17 an hour immediately – and raise it once more to $18 an hour starting January 1, 2025. The Associated Press called the race with 50.8% of the voters against raising the state’s minimum wage – against 49.2% in favor. … more vote counts will continue in the coming days, with a certified vote number still to be announced.” (11/19/24)
