California moves forward to year-round daylight saving time as Proposition 7 was approved in the Nov. 6 midterm elections.

With 59.9 percent voting “yes” and 40.1 percent “no,” Proposition 7, the Permanent Daylight Saving Time Measure, authorizes California state legislature to set up the dates and times of the daylight saving time (DST).
