  • Summary

  • It was close, but Proposition 32, to raise California’s minimum wage, has been defeated by the voters. After two weeks of counting the latest-arriving ballots, the ballot measure has lost by about one and a half percent, statewide. That came as a surprise to some, given California’s liberal reputation, but not to others, given the mood about the economy and anger over high prices. The low turnout by Democrats also hurt, because many voters stayed home who might have been sympathetic to increasing the minimum wage. Proposition 32 would have raised the statewide wage to 18 dollars over the next year. For more, KCBS Radio anchors Patti Reising and Bret Burkhart, along with KCBS insider Doug Sovern, were joined by Joe Sanberg, the entrepreneur and anti-poverty advocate who was the chief proponent of Proposition 32. This is The State of California.
