This market resolves YES if California Proposition 44 (Requires Community Health Clinics Spend 90% of Revenue on Program Services. Initiative Statute.) is approved by voters at the November 3, 2026 general election under its official approval rule:

Simple majority of votes cast on the measure (Cal. Const. art. II §10(a); art. XVIII §4 for amendments). If conflicting measures both pass, the one with more yes votes prevails (art. II §10(b)).

Only the November 3, 2026 vote counts; earlier votes on similar proposals do not. YES means voter approval at this election, not that the measure is later implemented.

What the votes mean (official summary):

• YES: Certain private nonprofit health care clinics would have to spend at least 90 percent of their revenue each year on providing health care services.

• NO: The new requirement on health care clinic spending would not go into effect.

Results: resolves on the result certified by California Secretary of State (Statement of Vote, due by 38th day after election, i.e. 2026-12-11). It may resolve earlier once official returns or the Associated Press show the outcome cannot change and no recount is pending; if a recount or certified correction changes the outcome before resolution, the certified result controls.

No vote: if the measure is removed from the ballot, a court orders its votes not to be counted, or the vote is postponed beyond November 3, 2026, the market resolves N/A.

Later legal challenges: resolution follows voter approval as certified. A court later invalidating, enjoining or delaying the measure does not change the resolution.
