WASHINGTON (AP) - California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger says the voters have made clear to state lawmakers that they should take care of deficits through budget cuts alone, without passing the costs along to taxpayers.

Voters on Tuesday resoundingly rejected Schwarzenegger's package of budget-balancing measures that he promised would temporarily fix the state's financial crisis.

Instead, he now faces a $21.3 billion budget deficit.

Schwarzenegger said the state's residents have had to sell off motorcycles, second cars and hold garage sales to make ends meet in recent months. Now, they're telling state officials that the government has to shrink, too, and not come to them for extra help.

Schwarzenegger spoke Wednesday after meeting with Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius.
