In plain language

The bill establishes a specific order for five ballot measures in the 2026 election.

This bill sets the first five measures on the November 3, 2026, statewide ballot to be designated as Propositions 1 through 5. They will be listed in that specific order, while other measures will follow the standard numbering system.

Summary

Existing law specifies the order in which state measures appear on the ballot and requires state measures to be numbered in a continuous sequence starting with "1" for a period of 10 years, after which time the sequence recommences. Notwithstanding those provisions, this bill would specify that 5 particular measures that will be submitted to the voters at the November 3, 2026, statewide general election will be the first 5 measures to appear on the ballot and that they will be designated Propositions 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, respectively. The bill would not affect the placement or numbering of any other measure that will be submitted to the voters at the same election. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
