Big turnout for Pasco school levy. Here are the results
Pasco School District’s levy was passing by a substantial margin in initial election results Tuesday night.
Renewal of the educational programs and operations levy will decide the future of $50 million in funding annually for the district, which affects hundreds of jobs and beloved programs like sports.
A failure would have marked the first double levy failure in 54 years.
Election night results show the measure received about 58% support, or nearly 7,500 votes in favor. Nearly 42%, or 5,300 votes, came in against the measure. It needs more than 50% support to pass.
