    5,442,138 / 55.1% Yes votes ...... 4,428,702 / 44.9% No votes
    Amends Constitution eliminating existing restrictions on state, local contracting with private entities for engineering, architectural services; contracts awarded by competitive selection; bidding permitted, not required.

Actual impact will depend on how the state uses the contracting flexibility under the proposition.

    6,199,992 / 60.8% Yes votes ...... 3,991,153 / 39.2% No votes

Long-term state impact from $2 billion in annual costs to $3 billion in annual savings, depending on how many public school students shift to private schools.

    Proposition 39 School Facilities. 55% Local Vote. Bonds, Taxes Accountability Requirements.
    5,402,822 / 53.3% Yes votes ...... 4,733,205 / 46.7% No votes
    Authorizes bonds for repair, construction or replacement of school facilities, classrooms, if approved by 55% local vote. Fiscal Impact: Increased bond debt for many school districts.
