While campaigning in battleground Michigan on Nov. 3, Vice President Kamala Harris said her mail-in ballot was “on its way to California” and declined to say how she voted on her home state’s Proposition 36, which would enhance criminal penalties for shoplifting and drug dealing.
Launched by Californians for Safer Communities and supported by retail giants Walmart and Target, the measure would reverse portions of Proposition 47, which was passed by voters in 2014 to reduce prison population by lowering certain drug possession and theft charges from felonies to misdemeanors.
