I wonder whether the decision to make the Ark City school bond election a mail in vote will help its passage?
I assume that the school board would not have done it if they didn't think so, but I always thought you wanted to keep voter turnout low on single issue elections, especially when you are asking for a tax increase. The idea being that you target the campaign to those who might support it.
Anyway, I think the mail in vote is a decent idea if it raises the turnout as superintendent Ron Ballard suggests. My guess is that the $36 million measure faces an uphill battle. The district postponed the vote for more time to educate (campaign) the public. The Traveler online poll (unscientific) found a substantial majority opposed it.
It's tough to pass a tax increase in Ark City, which is well below the state average in per capital income. I think the jail bond vote failed in Ark City while winning countywide, and I was told the vote to provide tax money to Big Brothers Big Sister and CASA failed here but won in Winfield. It lost countywide.

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.
