Sonoma County election results released at 9:59 p.m. showed Sonoma County Measure H passing with 61.33 percent voting yes and 38.67 percent voting no. A simple majority was needed for the measure to pass.

Petaluma measures B and E both needed two-thirds majority votes to pass. As of 9:59 p.m. Tuesday, neither measure had the votes required.
