Chart of California’s November Ballot Measures and Their Status

On Tuesday, November 5, 2024, the General Election in California, and across the nation, will take place. There originally were up to 14 measures that could be voted on by the statewide electorate at that time.

However, after actions over the past few weeks by initiative proponents, the Legislature, and the state Supreme Court, there will be 10 measures facing voters in November. The Secretary of State has assigned the numbers as of July 3.
