Los Angeles County Voter Guide

Carl DeMaio and Reform California have released their “Plain English” voter guide to give you an easy-to-understand explanation of the ballot measures and grade candidates.  

California’s General Election is underway and ballots must be returned by November 8, 2022. With a bunch of confusing ballot measures and hundreds of candidates running for office, voters can feel overwhelmed and lost.  

This “Plain English” voter guide makes voting simple – especially when it comes to the ballot measures and local offices that do not allow candidates to disclose their party affiliation. Endorsements below are given only to candidates who “passed the test” on these crucial criteria: opposing taxes, fighting crime, improving schools, creating jobs, and defending personal freedoms. 

2022 offers a real chance for a wave election to block costly tax hikes and elect common-sense leaders - but to do that we need your help in turning out your friends, family and neighbors to vote and share this easy-to-understand voter guide with them! 

How to Use the Guide – 5 Sections: 

  • Review Statewide Ballot Measures 
  • Review Your Local Ballot Measures 
  • Review Statewide Candidate Races 
  • Review Legislative Candidate Races (Congress/State Legislature) 
  • Review Your County Candidate Races

Statewide Ballot Measures 

Prop 1 — NO 

Official Title: Constitutional Right to Reproductive Freedom. Legislative Constitutional Amendment. 

Plain English Translation: Eliminates Any Restrictions on When Abortions Can Be Performed 

Prop 1 is being sold publicly as merely a codification of a pro-choice position in the California state constitution but it actually goes far further than that. The actual text of this ballot measure would repeal the current ban on abortions after 23 weeks of a pregnancy and allow the right to a late-term abortion up to the moment of birth. Prop 1 would give California one of the most extreme abortion laws in the country. This measure may also interfere with existing state laws that allow for Sexually Violent Predators to be placed under mandatory chemical treatment to limit their sex drive and desires. Reform California recommends a NO vote. 

Prop 26 — NO 

Official Title: Allows In-Person Roulette, Dice Games, Sports Wagering on Tribal Lands. Initiative Constitutional Amendment and Statute.  

Plain English Translation: Protects Tribal Gaming Rights, But Enriches Trial Lawyers Through More Frivolous Lawsuits  

Prop 26 affirms the current practice of allowing only federally-recognized Native American tribes to operate roulette, dice games, and sports wagering on tribal lands, subject to compacts negotiated by the Governor and ratified by the Legislature. It would also allow on-site sports wagering at privately operated horse-racing tracks in specified counties for ages 21 and up. Unfortunately, the measure contains a “poison pill” to expand the use of the Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA) to allow unscrupulous trial attorneys to file frivolous lawsuits to shakedown small businesses. Reform California recommends a “NO” vote on Prop 26. 

Prop 27 — NO 

Official Title: Allows Online and Mobile Sports Wagering Outside Tribal Lands. Initiative Constitutional Amendment and Statute. 

Plain English Translation: Allows Private Businesses to Engage in Online Gambling to Compete with Native American Tribes 

Prop 27 would expand gambling in California beyond casinos currently operated by Native American tribes by allowing private businesses to operate online and mobile sports wagering for persons 21 and up. Native American tribes say this competition from private businesses will undermine their ability to fund programs for their tribes. Reform California recommends a NO vote. 

Prop 28 — NO 

Official Title: Provides Additional Funding For Arts And Music Education In Public Schools. Initiative Statute. 

Plain English Translation: Earmarks Mandatory Funding from the Existing State Education Budget for Arts and Music Programs 

Prop 28 is an earmark - or a requirement that the state spend at least a certain amount of funds from the state budget for the exclusive benefit of art and music programs. The earmark mandates that 1% of required state funding be set aside for arts and music programs and then allocates a greater proportion of the funds to schools serving more economically disadvantaged students. Earmarks are not free money - so any earmark will have to come at the expense of other important programs — including programs for fundamental academic areas like reading, writing, arithmetic, etc. Reform California recommends a NO vote. 

Prop 29 — NO 

Official Title: Requires On-Site Licensed Medical Professional At Kidney Dialysis Clinics And Establishes Other State Requirements. Initiative Statute 

Plain English Translation: Imposes Costly Regulations on Kidney Dialysis Clinics to Benefit Organized Labor Unions 

Prop 29 may be familiar to voters since it has been rejected TWICE before in 2018 and 2020. Why does it keep appearing on the ballot? Wealthy labor unions force the measure on the ballot in an attempt to impose new costly regulations on kidney dialysis clinics that would benefit the interests of the unions. Prop 29 requires specific medical personnel on site during treatment at outpatient kidney dialysis clinics - whether or not the personnel are even needed. The measure also increases mandatory state reporting and prohibits clinics from closing or substantially reducing services without state approval. A "no” vote keeps your doctors and clinics more independent from state control. Reform California recommends a NO vote. 

Prop 30 — NO 

Official Title: Provides Funding for Programs to Reduce Air Pollution And Prevent Wildfires by Increasing Tax on Personal Income Over $2 Million. 

Plain English Translation: TAX INCREASE - Increases Income Taxes to Fund a Variety of New Government Programs 

Prop 30 is a massive income tax increase - even though California already has the highest income taxes in the country of any state. Prop 30 imposes a 1.75% tax increase for personal incomes over $2 million. Revenue for the proposition aims to go toward climate change measures, but the definition of programs eligible for these new funds is quite broad as to allow the funds to be used in a wide-range of ways. Reform California recommends a NO vote. 

Prop 31 — NO 

Official Title: Referendum on 2020 Law that Would Prohibit the Retail Sale of Certain Flavored Tobacco Products. 

Plain English Translation: Should California Ban the Sale of Flavored Tobacco? 

Prop 31 is a “referendum” or question on whether a proposed state law should be implemented or rejected. State Senate Bill, SB 793, which prohibits the retail sale of certain flavored tobacco products and tobacco flavor enhancers. A “yes” vote would uphold and pass the law into effect, banning the retail sale of these flavored tobacco products. A “no” vote would overturn the law and tobacco companies would be allowed to sell flavored tobacco products in the state. 

Local Ballot Measures

Los Angeles County  

Measure A — NO 

Official Title: Charter Amendment-providing Authority To Remove An Elected Sheriff For Cause 

Plain English Translation: Gives Politicians the Power to Remove a Sheriff That You Elect If They Don’t Like Them 

Measure A grants the Board of Supervisors the power to remove an elected sheriff for just “cause” — what politicians define as “violations of the public trust.” This measure was crafted to subvert the will of voters and remove Sheriff Villanueva for refusing to enforce draconian and unscientific covid lockdowns. While backers of the measure say it was crafted to hold sheriffs accountable for cases of “deputy violence” and escaping oversight measures, we find these claims dubious. Measure A allows the Board too much discretion for removing sheriffs they disagree with politically. A NO vote blocks this measure. 

 

Measure C — NO 

Official Title: General Tax On Cannabis Business In The Unincorporated Area Of County 

Plain English Translation: Increase Taxes By 4% on Pot Shops

Plain English Translation: Should the City Switch to By-District Elections and Allow the City Clerk to be Appointed by Politicians Instead of Elected by Voters? 

Measure CA makes several changes to the city charter, many related to election procedures. It contains a “poison pill” however, as it changes the City Clerk from elected to appointed. This directly subverts the will of voters and allows potentially corrupt politicians to appoint their crony friends to positions of power. A NO vote keeps the City Clerk elected by the people. 

 

Measure HT — NO 

Official Title: Increase the maximum rate of the City's Transient Occupancy Tax (also known as Hotel Tax) charged to guests of hotels and any other overnight lodging facilities from a maximum of 10% to 12% 

Plain English Translation: Increase the Traveler Tax on Hotel Guests By 2% 

Measure HT is a massive tax increase on out-of-town guests by 2%. While the measure and proponents may argue this tax is paid by hotels and motels, they pass that fee onto guests.

Measure CN — YES 

Official Title: Establishing campaign contribution limits and penalties lowering the maximum contribution from an individual or political action committee to $750 per candidate/PAC per election cycle be adopted by voters? 

Plain English Translation: Lower Individual Political Contribution Limit per Cycle from $4,900 to $750 

Measure CN reduces the political campaign contribution limit for city races from $4,900 to $750. According to state law, if a city doesn’t set its own limit, the limit is automatically $4,900. Establishing a $750 limit is reasonable for a city the size of Baldwin Park. A YES vote approves the measure. 

 

Measure RM — NO 

Official Title: Shall the voters elect five Councilmembers to a four-year term with an annually sequential rotating Mayor and Mayor Pro Tempore of the City Council of the City of Baldwin Park commencing in the year 2024?

Plain English Translation: Establish Term Limits of a Combined 12 Years for Service on the City Council and/or as Mayor

Plain English Translation: Establish a 3-Term Lifetime Limit on City Council Members, and Count Partial Terms as Full Terms for 3-Term Limit 

Measure AA imposes a lifetime limit of 3 terms on the City Council. Local term limits help improve accountability and keep politicians in touch with their communities. A YES vote approves this measure. 

 

City of Carson 

Measure R — NO 

Official Title: Carson Essential Services Protection Measure 

Plain English Translation: Continue 2% Tax on Gas/Electric Utilities 

Measure R is essentially a massive tax increase. It is an extension of the current 2% utility tax rate, and it would last until ended by voters (in other words: permanently).

Measure VY may seem like a nice attempt to expand voting access, but it will actually dramatically decrease the security of our elections and make it easier for voter fraud to occur.

Measure MP — NO 

Official Title: Establishing a ¾¢ transactions and use (sales) tax until ended by voters 

Plain English Translation: Massive Sales Tax Increase 

Measure MC is a massive sales tax increase of 0.75%. While the measure claims to fund public safety, parks, homeless prevention, and more, we find those claims dubious. The measure contains loopholes allowing funds to be diverted to other projects with little accountability. A NO vote blocks this tax increase.

City of Pasadena 

Measure L — NO 

Official Title: Pasadena Public Library Services Continuation Measure 

Plain English Translation: Continue Massive Tax on Parcels 

Measure L is effectively a massive tax increase on parcels — in other words a land/property tax — by continuing the current parcel tax which is set to expire. While proponents claim the measure will fund library services, we find these claims dubious. A NO vote blocks this massive tax increase. 

 

Measure H — NO 

Official Title: Pasadena Charter Amendment Initiative Petition Measure Imposing Rent 

Control 

Plain English Translation: Decrease Rental Units By Chasing Away Landlords with Bans on Evictions and Rent Caps 

Measure H will effectively decrease the amount of rental housing by chasing away landlords. The measure limits rent adjustments annually to 75% of the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index and prohibits most evictions. These measures disincentivize landlords from renting out their property, which will exacerbate the housing crisis. A NO vote blocks this poorly thought-out blow to the housing market. 

 

Pasadena Area Community College District 

Measure PCC — NO 

Official Title: Shall the Pasadena Area Community College District bond measure authorizing $565,000,000 at legal rates be adopted

Plain English Translation: Massive Tax Increase on Business Licenses

Official Title: Shall the terms served by City Council Members in the City of Pico Rivera be limited to not more than three (3) consecutive four (4) year terms, after which City Council Members shall not be qualified to serve in that elected office for a period of four (4) years?

City of Pomona 

Measure PO — YES 

Official Title: For the Police Oversight Commission Measure 

Plain English Translation: Establish Police Oversight Commission

Plain English Translation: Establish Independent Redistricting Commission 

Measure PI establishes an Independent Redistricting Commission to draw the lines for the city electoral districts every ten years, following the US census. Establishing the commission is easy, but making sure unbiased and competent people run the commission is the challenge.

Official Title: For the Term Limits Measure 

Plain English Translation: Establish 3 Consecutive Term Limit on City Council Members and Mayor 

Measure P imposes a limit of three consecutive terms on City Council members and the Mayor. Local term limits help improve accountability and keep politicians in touch with their communities. A YES vote approves this measure. 

 

Measure PR — NO 

Official Title: For the Resign to Run Measure 

Plain English Translation: Force City Council Members Running for Mayor to Resign 

Measure PR would require city council members running for mayor to resign their council seat if the new mayoral term would begin before the council member’s current term ends. While we understand the intent of the measure is to make elections more fair, the method by which this measure goes about the issue would create additional costs for taxpayers and additional challenges for the city government. A NO vote blocks this measure. 

 

Measure PL — YES 

Official Title: For the Local Primary Measure 

Plain English Translation: Establish Primary Elections for Mayor and City Council 

Measure PL amends the city charter to establish primary elections for mayor and city council beginning in 2024. Under the measure, if a candidate receives a majority of the vote in the primary, they shall be elected. But, if a candidate fails to obtain a majority of the vote, the top two vote-getters will advance to the general election. A YES vote approves this measure. 

 

Measure PC — NO 

Official Title: For the Campaign Finance Measure 

Plain English Translation: Increases Campaign Contribution Limits with Rate of Inflation, and Requires Stricter Financial Disclosures from Campaigns 

Measure PC does... well, we don’t have much information on it. The city hasn’t published the measure text online, and the City Clerk did not respond to repeated requests in a timely manner. We can't support anything that the city is keeping shrouded in secret. A NO vote blocks this suspicious measure. 

 

Measure PG — NO 

Official Title: For the General Charter Update Measure 

Plain English Translation: Amend the City Charter 

Measure PG does... well, we don’t have much information on it. The city hasn’t published the measure text online, and the City Clerk did not respond to repeated requests in a timely manner. We can't support anything that the city is keeping shrouded in secret — especially a substantial charter update. A NO vote blocks this suspicious measure. 

 

Measure PS — NO 

Official Title: Special Tax Measure 

Plain English Translation: Massive Tax Increase on Parcels 

Measure PS is effectively a massive tax increase on parcels — in other words a land/property tax. While proponents claim the measure will fund road improvements, we find these claims dubious. A NO vote blocks this massive tax increase.

Official Title: Shall the measure to levy an annual special parcel tax on specified vacant commercial and residential properties within the City of San Marino ... be adopted? 

Plain English Translation: Massive Tax Increase on Parcels

City of Santa Monica 

Measure CS — NO 

Official Title: Shall the measure ... to provide a third tier transfer tax ... be adopted? 

Plain English Translation: Massive Tax Increase on Property Transfers 

Measure CS is a massive tax increase on transfers of property. Revenue from the measure will allegedly fund “affordable housing,” schools, and more, but we find those claims dubious. A NO vote blocks this massive tax increase. 

 

Measure GS — NO 

Official Title: Shall the City of Santa Monica increase the transient occupancy tax ... by 1% for hotels and motels, and by 3% for homeshares 

Plain English Translation: Increase the Traveler Tax on Hotel Guests By 1% 

Measure HT is a massive tax increase on out-of-town guests by 1% and homeshares by 3%. While the measure and proponents may argue this tax is paid by hotels and motels, they pass that fee onto guests. While the measure claims to fund parks, roads, and public safety, we find those claims dubious. A NO vote stops this tax increase. 

 

Measure PB — NO 

Official Title: Shall the City Charter be amended to: (a) expand eligibility requirements for service on the City’s Personnel Board to include, in addition to City of Santa Monica (“City”) residents, residents of Los Angeles County that are employed full-time within the City, or own real property in the City, or have been issued a business license by the City; and (b) reduce the term of service for Personnel Board members from five to four years? 

Plain English Translation: Allow Non-City Residents to Serve on City Board 

Measure PB allows non-city residents to serve on a city board and make decisions on behalf of the city. Allowing non-residents to have a say in city affairs weakens the voice of city residents. A NO vote maintains local say and control. 

 

Measure DT — NO 

Official Title: Increasing the one-time tax on real property sales ... and establishing an additional incremental tax  

Plain English Translation: Massive Tax Increase on Property Sales and Transfers 

Measure DT is a massive tax increase on sales and transfers of property. Revenue from the measure will go straight into the city general fund to be used on any project the city wishes, with little accountability. A NO vote blocks this massive tax increase. 

 

Measure DTS — NO 

Official Title: If the “Comprehensive Real Property Transfer Tax Measure” is enacted, should at least 30% of its additional revenue be used for housing assistance to protect seniors and low-income families from housing displacement, with the remainder of the additional revenue to be used for homelessness services; behavioral health services, public safety and emergency response teams for City streets and parks; reopening public libraries; after-school programs; and crossing guards near public schools? 

Plain English Translation: Allocate Property Transfer Tax Revenue to Affordable Housing Programs 

Measure DTS allocates revenue from the property transfer tax, if enacted, to affordable housing and various other programs. While the measure sounds nice, it contains a “poison pill” by funding affordable housing. “Affordable” housing programs waste taxpayer funds to benefit politically-connected developers. These arrangements also discriminate against small and minority-owned businesses. A NO vote prevents the funding of these shady programs. 

 

Measure HMP — NO 

Official Title: Establish a business tax on every licensed cannabis business ... up to 10% of gross receipts  

Plain English Translation: Massive Tax Increase of 10% on Pot Shops 

No matter where you stand on the issue of legalized marijuana use, Measure HMP is a massive tax increase on pot shops. A NO vote will block this tax increase.

Plain English Translation: Decrease Units for Rent by Implementing Radical Rent Control Measures 

Measure RC will effectively decrease the amount of rental housing by chasing away landlords. The measure cuts rent adjustments annually in half. These measures disincentivize landlords from renting out their property, which will exacerbate the housing crisis. A NO vote blocks this poorly thought-out blow to the housing market.  

 

Measure EM — NO 

Official Title: Shall the City Charter be amended to allow the Rent Control Board to disallow or modify annual general rent adjustments for rent controlled units during a declared state of emergency ... while maintaining the landlord’s ability to petition for a rent adjustment 

Plain English Translation: Decrease Units for Rent by Implementing Radical Rent Control Measures During a State of Emergency 

Measure EM will effectively decrease the amount of rental housing by chasing away landlords. The measure will allow the Rent Control Board to stop or modify rent adjustments during a state of emergency, hurting and disincentivizing landlord income. These measures disincentivize landlords from renting out their property, which will exacerbate the housing crisis. A NO vote blocks this poorly thought-out blow to the housing market.  

 

Santa Monica Community College District 

Measure SMC — NO

Plain English Translation: Shall the City Take Out $375 Million in Bonds to be Repaid by Taxpayers to Give a Line of Credit to a Poorly Managed Community College District?

City of Sierra Madre 

Measure HR — NEUTRAL 

Official Title: Shall the general plan land use designation change from "Institutional" to "Hillside" and the zoning designation change from "Institutional" to "Hillside Management" for the Mater Dolorosa Property? 

Plain English Translation: Permits Building of New Single-Family Homes on the Mater Dolorosa Property 

Measure HR would amend the land use and zoning designation of the Mater Dolorosa Property from “Institutional,” where Single-family homes are prohibited, to “Hillside Management,” where single-family homes, duplexes, and accessory dwelling units are allowed. Proponents argue this applies land-use designations more equally in Sierra Madre, while opponents argue the measure will harm the small village character of the city. 

 

City of South El Monte 

Measure CM — NO 

Official Title: Shall the measure, permitting and thoroughly regulating limited cannabis retail businesses ... establishing a general tax at a maximum 8% of noncultivation cannabis business proceeds and $25/square foot of cultivation space ... be adopted?

City of South Pasadena 

Measure LL — NO 

Official Title: Shall an ordinance be adopted extending South Pasadena’s Library Special Tax, which is due to expire on June 30, 2024, to remain in effect until otherwise terminated by a majority vote of the South Pasadena electorate? 

Plain English Translation: Extend Special Tax Rate Permanently 

Measure LL is effectively a massive tax increase. It is an extension of the current special tax rate, and it would last until ended by voters (in other words, permanently). A NO vote blocks the tax rate from continuing, effectively giving city residents a tax cut! Vote NO to lower your tax bill. 

Wiseburn Unified School District

Measure EE - NO

Official Title: Shall Wiseburn Unified School District's locally controlled measure authorizing $98,000,000 in bonds at legal rates ... be adopted.
