However, no dramatic change has been seen in Los Angeles and other large cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state accounts for nearly a third of the homeless population in the United States; roughly 181,000 Californians are in need of housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom, who made the measure a signature proposal, spent significant time and money campaigning on its behalf. He raised more than $13 million to promote it with the support of law enforcement, first responders, hospitals and mayors of major cities.

Gavin Newsom’s mental health ballot measure would likely pass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The anti-Proposition 1 campaign, on Monday, instead \u003ca href=\"https://www.prop1no.com/press_release_3_18_24\">withdrew its concession and revived its efforts\u003c/a>. What changed?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For one thing, the vote count tightened: As of late Saturday, Proposition 1 was leading by about 20,000 votes, with 7.5 million ballots counted and some 287,000 left to be tallied, according to the Secretary of State.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='More on Prop. 1' link1='https://www.kqed.org/elections/results/california/proposition-1, Election 2024 Results' link2='https://www.kqed.org/news/11975170/bay-curious-breaks-down-prop-1,Bay Curious Breaks Down Proposition 1' link3='https://www.kqed.org/news/11978919/prop-1-update-gavin-newsoms-mental-health-plan-maintains-slim-lead,Prop. 1 Update: Maintains Slim Lead']And for another, Newsom’s political action committee put out an appeal for volunteers to reach out to Democrats who had their ballots rejected — for mismatched signatures or other reasons — to fix them and get them counted. The training was on Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Gov. Newsom needs you…. The votes are being counted and it is CLOSE. Like, just a couple thousand votes close,” the appeal said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 1 opponents called that strategy “sleazy” and “an attempt to manipulate the final vote count by harvesting the votes of only some partisans in certain areas.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the foes said they’re now launching a similar effort and \u003ca href=\"https://www.prop1no.com/\">refocusing their website\u003c/a> to help voters confirm their ballots were counted and to assist voters whose ballots were rejected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe all ballots should be counted,” Paul Simmons, a director of Californians Against Proposition 1, said in a statement. “We know that many Democrats voted against Prop. 1, so the governor’s effort is no slam dunk. If you’re a Republican or independent, we want you to know that your ballot might make the difference in this election. But the governor won’t help you. We will.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t know if reviving rejected ballots will change the outcome of this election,” Simmons added, “but if the governor thinks it might, we for damn sure aren’t going to let him have the field to himself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, the Proposition 1 results would have to get even closer for a recount.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/statewide-recounts/statewide-recounts-faq\">no automatic recounts for statewide ballot measures\u003c/a>. But a campaign can request one in specific counties — if the campaign is willing to pay for it. That could be a hurdle for the cash-strapped Proposition 1 opponents if the measure narrowly passes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s another provision in state law that could also come into play: The governor can order a state-funded hand recount of all votes statewide if the official results show a difference between “yes” and “no” votes on a ballot measure of 1,000 votes or less, or 0.00015 percentage points or less. As of the latest vote count, the second percentage point threshold would be 1,055 votes for Proposition 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So if Proposition 1 fails that narrowly, it wouldn’t be a surprise if Newsom uses this provision. Such a recount request would have to come within 36 days of the primary or mid-April.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

The training was on Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Gov. Newsom needs you…. The votes are being counted and it is CLOSE. Like, just a couple thousand votes close,” the appeal said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 1 opponents called that strategy “sleazy” and “an attempt to manipulate the final vote count by harvesting the votes of only some partisans in certain areas.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the foes said they’re now launching a similar effort and \u003ca href=\"https://www.prop1no.com/\">refocusing their website\u003c/a> to help voters confirm their ballots were counted and to assist voters whose ballots were rejected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe all ballots should be counted,” Paul Simmons, a director of Californians Against Proposition 1, said in a statement. “We know that many Democrats voted against Prop. 1, so the governor’s effort is no slam dunk. If you’re a Republican or independent, we want you to know that your ballot might make the difference in this election. But the governor won’t help you. We will.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t know if reviving rejected ballots will change the outcome of this election,” Simmons added, “but if the governor thinks it might, we for damn sure aren’t going to let him have the field to himself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, the Proposition 1 results would have to get even closer for a recount.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/statewide-recounts/statewide-recounts-faq\">no automatic recounts for statewide ballot measures\u003c/a>. But a campaign can request one in specific counties — if the campaign is willing to pay for it. That could be a hurdle for the cash-strapped Proposition 1 opponents if the measure narrowly passes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s another provision in state law that could also come into play: The governor can order a state-funded hand recount of all votes statewide if the official results show a difference between “yes” and “no” votes on a ballot measure of 1,000 votes or less, or 0.00015 percentage points or less. As of the latest vote count, the second percentage point threshold would be 1,055 votes for Proposition 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So if Proposition 1 fails that narrowly, it wouldn’t be a surprise if Newsom uses this provision. Such a recount request would have to come within 36 days of the primary or mid-April.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In exchange, the industry agreed to stop fighting the issue at the ballot box, and lawmakers backed off on even stricter regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a month before the new wage — $20 an hour for workers at fast food chains with 60 or more locations nationally — goes into effect, the temporary truce is unraveling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the Legislature \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB610\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pushes through a bill\u003c/a> exempting fast food restaurants in airports, hotels and convention centers, Republican lawmakers who had vehemently pushed back on the wage hike \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/newsletter/proposition-1-newsom-voters/#wm-story-1\">are calling for the deal to be investigated\u003c/a> after Bloomberg reported that Gov. Gavin Newsom pushed for a bakery exemption that benefited a donor who owns two dozen Panera locations in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Thursday, Newsom’s office denied the story and said their lawyers believe Panera and other chain bakeries aren’t actually exempt — a decision that could lead numerous additional businesses to scramble to prepare for a wage hike. In a Bloomberg story Friday, \u003ca href=\"https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/billionaire-flynn-says-he-met-newsom-staff-in-lobbying-effort-against-wage-bill/ar-BB1jbt8c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">billionaire Greg Flynn says\u003c/a> he did not seek a special exemption, though he met with the governor’s staff along with other restaurant owners to suggest a carve-out for “fast casual” restaurants. On Saturday, the California Restaurant Association weighed in, saying there was \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/CalRestaurants/status/1764009596455407826?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">never any discussion of any brand seeking an exemption\u003c/a>, including Panera. And in an \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/JWheelertv/status/1764113769737896371?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">interview with KNBC aired Sunday\u003c/a>, Newsom, himself, called the report “absurd.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Service Employees International Union, which pushed for the legislation, said it agreed with Newsom’s reasoning. Senate Republican leader \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/legislator-tracker/brian-jones-1968/\">Brian Jones\u003c/a> called for scrapping the fast food agreement altogether.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The renewed fights have moved to the local level, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some franchise owners \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/california-fast-act-18678650.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">are cutting jobs\u003c/a> in advance of the minimum wage increase, while workers have begun pushing for additional benefits in San Jose and Los Angeles, prompting businesses to gear up to lobby back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Worker advocates are also pledging to push for job security measures once a \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/california-divide/2024/01/california-fast-food-council-2/\">first-in-the-nation fast food regulatory council\u003c/a> (another part of the deal) is in place. On Friday, Newsom \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2024/03/01/governor-newsom-announces-appointments-3-1-24/\">announced his seven appointees\u003c/a> to the council, including Chairperson Nicholas Hardeman, chief of staff to state Senate leader emeritus Toni Atkins. The governor’s other picks are a mix of franchisees, workers and others. Legislative leaders picked the final two members, both union leaders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And some McDonald’s franchise owners, who have complained they were frozen out from last year’s deal-making, are retaliating against state lawmakers who supported it as they seek other public offices in Tuesday’s primary. The new \u003ca href=\"https://www.caafob.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">California Alliance of Family Owned Businesses\u003c/a> PAC formed earlier this year as an offshoot of prior lobbying by owners of local McDonald’s restaurants.[aside label=\"Related Stories\" tag=\"fast-food-workers\"]Its opening salvo: \u003ca href=\"https://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert/article285712731.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">attack mailers\u003c/a> against Assemblymembers \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/legislator-tracker/chris-holden-1960/\">Chris Holden\u003c/a>, a Pasadena Democrat running for the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, and \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/legislator-tracker/kevin-mccarty-1972/\">Kevin McCarty\u003c/a>, a Sacramento Democrat running in a crowded primary for mayor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In order to protect our family businesses in California now and into the future, it has become clear that we must more actively engage in politics across the state,” Kerri Harper-Howie, an alliance board member and a McDonald’s owner in Los Angeles County, said in a statement. “Politicians should know that if they agree to carry water for those who threaten our businesses, they will be opposed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Holden authored the bill forming a fast food council and mandating the wage hike, while McCarty was one of many Democrats who voted for it. The PAC has spent more than $300,000 against each. McCarty’s campaign manager, Andrew Acosta, said business owners are “trying to punish him for standing up for workers’ rights and higher wages.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The PAC is also spending in an Inland Empire Assembly primary and in favor of Assemblymember \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/legislator-tracker/tim-grayson-1967/\">Tim Grayson\u003c/a>‘s bid for the state Senate. Grayson, a Concord Democrat, voted in favor of the fast food deal last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The franchisee committee has spent more than $1.8 million so far this year. That’s not much compared to the tens of millions of dollars fast food giants such as McDonald’s and national industry groups poured into a \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2022/12/california-elections-industries-laws/\">campaign account for the effort to repeal\u003c/a> the 2022 fast food law. The referendum was ultimately\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>pulled from the ballot in last year’s deal. However, it indicates the increasing activity of franchise owners in state and local politics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marisol Sanchez, who owns 14 McDonald’s restaurants in the High Desert north of San Bernardino and helps run her family’s larger franchise business, said she never got involved in politics before last year.

In exchange, the industry agreed to stop fighting the issue at the ballot box, and lawmakers backed off on even stricter regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a month before the new wage — $20 an hour for workers at fast food chains with 60 or more locations nationally — goes into effect, the temporary truce is unraveling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the Legislature \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB610\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pushes through a bill\u003c/a> exempting fast food restaurants in airports, hotels and convention centers, Republican lawmakers who had vehemently pushed back on the wage hike \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/newsletter/proposition-1-newsom-voters/#wm-story-1\">are calling for the deal to be investigated\u003c/a> after Bloomberg reported that Gov. Gavin Newsom pushed for a bakery exemption that benefited a donor who owns two dozen Panera locations in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Thursday, Newsom’s office denied the story and said their lawyers believe Panera and other chain bakeries aren’t actually exempt — a decision that could lead numerous additional businesses to scramble to prepare for a wage hike. In a Bloomberg story Friday, \u003ca href=\"https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/billionaire-flynn-says-he-met-newsom-staff-in-lobbying-effort-against-wage-bill/ar-BB1jbt8c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">billionaire Greg Flynn says\u003c/a> he did not seek a special exemption, though he met with the governor’s staff along with other restaurant owners to suggest a carve-out for “fast casual” restaurants. On Saturday, the California Restaurant Association weighed in, saying there was \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/CalRestaurants/status/1764009596455407826?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">never any discussion of any brand seeking an exemption\u003c/a>, including Panera.
