Up and down the ballot, where Monterey County residents voted with and broke off from the state.

Though most of nation is glued to their screens vigilantly watching the outcome of the 2020 presidential race, there is a lot at stake beyond who will lead U.S. for the next four years. In California, the ballot included a dozen proposition on  everything from adjusting property taxes for businesses to whether or not 17-year-olds could vote in some elections and rent control to employment status for Uber and Lyft drivers. 

Monterey County and the rest of California are still processing ballots, but the numbers as of Thursday, Nov. 5, two days after Election Day, are likely to hold up with big divides on yes/no votes.

Monterey County voters more or less voted with the state overall, such as delivering a definitive no on Prop. 21, which would have expanded local governments' authority on rent control.

One some propositions—such as Prop. 15, which would have tax commercial properties at the current market value—Monterey County broke away. Locals voted yes on Prop. 15 while the state overall voted no, based on early returns.
