Proposition 19 passes, leaving just one of CA's 12 statewide props uncalled

Just one of California's 12 statewide propositions remains too close to call more than a week after Election Day, according to projections by The Associated Press.

That's Proposition 14.

If passed, it would authorize $5.5 billion in bonds for a state stem cell research institute. Voters in Southern California and the Bay Area were largely behind this measure. About $1.5 million would be used to research diseases like Alzheimer's, epilepsy and Parkinson's.

As of late Wednesday, it's on track to pass with about 51% of voters behind it.

Proposition 19 has passed, according to projections by the AP late Wednesday. The measure changes tax assessment transfers and inheritance rules, allowing homeowners 55 and older, disabled or victims of wildfires and other natural disasters to transfer a primary residence's tax base to a replacement home.

The AP projected Proposition 15 would fail late Tuesday with almost 52% of Californians voting against it. There were not enough uncounted votes left for the measure to pass. Prop 15 would have required commercial and industrial properties to be taxed based on market value. Proponents said an estimated $12 billion raised would go to schools and government services.

The AP has projected all other statewide propositions.
