A proposal to secure funding for law enforcement and increase pay for some elected officials was approved by more than 61 percent of voters—as of preliminary results Nov. 18—in the Southern California county of San Bernardino.
Measure L requires minimum funding amounts to cover personnel in unincorporated areas and changes salary calculations for elected officials—excluding county supervisors and school superintendents.
