School bonds are doing very well in Los Angeles County. With 16 school bonds and three community college bonds on the ballot, all but three are winning easily.

The biggest, the Los Angeles Unified School District’s Measure Q: Not even close. With 55% of votes counted, it’s got nearly 60 percent. Short of two-thirds, but remember that special rules apply to school bonds - they need only 55%. This is by far the biggest school bond, at $7 billion.

The Los Angeles Community College District’s Measure J is headed to a major win as well.

Check the results here, and click on schools - but remember to refresh periodically or you’ll be stuck with old figures.

The $13 million bond in Acton-Agua Dulce (north of the San Fernando Valley) is losing, the Westside Union School District (in West Lancaster) is running 50-50, and the William S. Hart Union High School District (Santa Clarita) is ahead bit short of the needed 55%. But all the others are on their way to victory.
