2 Cedar Hill ISD Precincts Didn't Have Tax Hike/Bond Package Items on Ballots

CEDAR HILL -- Two sources told The Ellis County Observer that several ballots in two unnamed precincts did not have the school district's 13-cent tax hike referendum or the CHISD's $53 million bond package on the ballot. Both measures failed in the election Nov. 8. This is the second ballot irregularity to surface after a husband and wife told The Ellis County Observer that their touch-screen voting machine popped up a message telling them they were "voting against too many" propositions.

Proposition 1 ($53 Million Bond Package)

FOR — 1,754 (votes) — 49%

AGAINST — 1,822 — 50%

Proposition 2 (13-Cent Tax Hike)

FOR — 1,609 — 45%

AGAINST — 1,961 — 54%
