Voters today are deciding school funding measures in the Battle Ground, La Center and Green Mountain school districts.
To be valid, ballots in the all-mail vote must be postmarked on or before today, or delivered to an authorized collection location by 8 p.m.
First results should be available shortly after 8 p.m. and will be posted on the county’s website and at The Columbian.
As of this morning, 19,755 ballots had been received by the county of 44,466 mailed. That’s a turnout rate of 44.4 percent.
That number does not include ballots that are in the mail or, obviously, will be mailed.
At stake are a four-year maintenance and operations levy in Battle Ground; a special levy for facilities, including sports facilities, in La Center; and a levy that would buy an additional portable classroom building in tiny Green Mountain. All need a simple majority of yes votes to pass.
