If you look at all the twitter feeds its about 20 to 1 in favor
That's because of the age skew in the demographics. Young people (Tweeters) are overwhelmingly in favor. Old people (Tweety is a cartoon bird) are overwhelmingly against.
There's hope though. Old people die.

I had a couple older folks say "Nice shirt" earlier when it read "Pot the Vote" from Doug Benson's recent comedy tour.

Is there any way we can see the voting percentages for it so far?

I got my 90 year old grandmother to vote yes on 19!   
Even if this proposition doesn't pass, I am proud to say that after speaking with at least 100 people over the past couple of months on this matter, not a single person (with the virtual exception of nachohippie) failed to understand the point of view underlying my desire to see this proposition pass. It felt really good to be able to speak to undecided voters and get them to understand that marijuana prohibition simply doesn't work - and worse, that it is actually creating a lot of harm and waste via the misdirection of our criminal justice system. It felt even better to be completely open with my entire family about my use and support for this as well.
Whatever happens, I will never stop fighting for any loosening of restriction pertaining to cannabis or practically any other drug.

Yea its not going to pass. I think it lacked funds, I kept expecting some rich guy who loves weed to throw 10 or so million at it. Never happened however. Shit even Soros (worth 14 billion or 14,000 times his donation) only gave 1 million and that was a week before now.

baiting ???? I just have a different opinion than most of the folks here and I say most because I know a few feel the same way 
no matter how you all feel I feel this law has too many flaws and I have voted no if you are a registered voter in the great state of California i encourage you to get out there and vote how you see fit 
isn't America great we can all have a say

See, if only it had been commercialized. Then it could've gotten corporate funding from Doritos, 7-11, and other businesses that cater to stoners.
