Early numbers show voters rejecting the $120 million bond authorization for the Peoria Unified School District, according to unofficial results.
After an update from Maricopa County elections, 54.25% or 42,557 votes reject the bond while 45.75% or 35,896 votes support it.
An approved bond would authorize Peoria Unified to sell up to $120 million dollars in bonds to maintain existing facilities, increase safety and security, upgrade technology, and purchase additional school buses. The bond will also include funds for a new elementary school.
