LOS ANGELES—The fate of a package of proposed Los Angeles County charter amendments that would overhaul county government, in part by expanding the Board of Supervisors and making the county CEO an elected position, was still unknown Wednesday with the vote too close to call.

As of Wednesday afternoon, the results of Tuesday’s election sill had voters almost evenly split on Measure G, with the yes votes slightly leading 50.3 percent, and about 15,000 votes separating the two sides out of 2.3 million ballots tallied.
