Proposition 40, a one-time tax on billionaires to help fund healthcare, holds a narrow lead, while Proposition 39, which would require voter ID and citizenship verification, is currently opposed by a majority of likely voters.

Finally, rookie quarterback Ty Simpson impressed in his first NFL action, completing 21 of 25 passes for 190 yards and two touchdowns in the Rams' 20-12 preseason win over the Kansas City Chiefs. Head coach Sean McVay praised Simpson's command of the offense, while the performance adds intrigue to the battle for the Rams' backup quarterback job behind Matthew Stafford.
