California voters have rejected a ballot measure that would have banned forced labor in jails and prisons, yet more evidence from the Nov. 5 election that voters have lost their appetite for criminal justice reforms amid growing frustrations over what many see as worsening crime in their communities.

With nearly three-quarters of the vote counted on Monday, the measure, Proposition 6, trailed with 46.2% support. The Associated Press called the race Sunday evening.
