PLEASANT RIDGE, California — November 3, 2026 election. The Pleasant Ridge Union School District’s Measure M is above its 55% approval threshold in the initial November 2026 vote count.

Unofficial result

The reported tally is 4,020 Yes votes (66.52%) versus 2,023 No (33.48%). The Yes margin is 1,997 votes in the election-night snapshot.

Geographic scope and significance

The district proposed issuing up to $19.8 million in general-obligation school bonds for leaky roofs, HVAC replacement, safety improvements and other facilities work. The ballot described an estimated tax of $22.50 per $100,000 of assessed (not market) property value, with financial audits and oversight. The measure requires 55% Yes; the initial share clears that threshold, but approval is not certified and no project should be described as already funded.
