California's Proposition 40, also known as the Billionaire Tax Act, has failed to pass, with over 60% of votes counted. The measure aimed to impose a one-time tax of 5% on the total net worth of Californians worth over $1 billion, making it the first state tax on net worth. The 'poison pill' ballot measure that could have killed the billionaire tax, by banning state taxes on retirement accounts, did not materialize as a significant challenge.
