Measure "25-0024A1" as described here: https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/ballot-measures/initiative-and-referendum-status/initiatives-referenda-cleared-circulation

Resolves YES if it's actually on the 2026 ballot. This means, collected enough valid signatures and survived any legal challenges.

If it's somehow on the ballot but a judge rules that the results are void, before or after the election is held - ie, a decision could not be made before printing began - this will still resolve YES.

If a different measure qualifies but this measure does not qualify then this will resolve NO.

No, because this petition is being presented to voters under two petitions seeking to ban this type of tax. By the time voters get to the third petition they have already tuned out and are heading into the store to pick up their groceries.

NO @ ~50%. As of early March the campaign had collected only 25% of the required 874,641 signatures. The California SOS recommends submitting petitions by April 17 for random-sample verification — that leaves roughly 12 days to collect 75% of signatures. SEIU-UHW has resources and professional signature gatherers, but this pace is significantly behind schedule for well-funded California initiatives. Democratic fault lines (Newsom lukewarm, internal party opposition) add friction. Historical base rate for well-funded initiatives that start slow: ~50-60%. Adjusting for the tight timeline: 50%.
