The California Primary Election on June 2 had the benefit of clear skies and lovely weather. Voters attended their local polling places either to cast the ballots or to drop off “vote-by-mail” ballots they had prepared earlier. As well as voting for state officials, voters chose to support local schools.
 
    Lafayette School District’s Measure H appears to be passing with a very comfortable 74.55% of the vote in unofficial results from election night, updated on Friday, June 5. The bond measures require a two-thirds majority to pass.  Moraga School District’s Measure I seems on its way to victory as well, with the yes vote standing at 69.50%. 

    Orinda did not have a bond issue on the ballot, having completed a lot of work on facilities under earlier bonds.  In March of 2023 the district also secured a $295-per-parcel parcel tax to preserve small class sizes and maintain core academic instruction.

    The Acalanes Union High School District proposed a parcel tax measure in 2025, but it fell short of the required two-thirds majority. The board is considering whether or not to try again on the November 2026 ballot.

    A bond measure for the Walnut Creek School District appeared to be falling short of reaching the required two-thirds majority as of the last ballot count, with the yes vote at a little over 64%.  Moraga, Lafayette, Orinda and Walnut Creek schools all feed into the Acalanes Union High School District. There was also a bond measure on the ballot for the Contra Costa Community College District, which appears to be failing to reach the required 55% majority, with the yes vote currently at just a little over 49%.

    Similarly, Contra Costa County voters rejected Measure B, which would have imposed a 0.625% sales tax to raise $150 million annually to backfill federal funding cuts to health care and other essential services.

However, voters did embrace Measure A, which will continue the County's Urban Limit Line through 2051, passing with over 69% of yes votes. 
    July 2 is the target date for the county to certify the final results of the election.
