Posted: Updated:

SACRAMENTO, Calif.--The California Secretary of State has certified the 2012 election results and the number of California voters who supported Prop 35 this past November passed the 10 million mark at 10,078,476. 

In addition, 81.3% of the voters supported the measure, making Prop 35 the most successful ballot initiative since Californians began the process in the 1914 election.  Prop 35 was also the first initiative to pass with over 80% of the vote. 

Proposition 35 is designed to stop human trafficking in California.  Three cities in the state – San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Diego – are recognized by the FBI as high intensity child sex trafficking areas.

The California county with the highest vote percentage for Prop 35 was Monterey at 86.4%. 

Among California's most populous counties, Los Angeles voted at 79.3%, Orange at 82.9%, and San Diego at 83.9%.
