§ 98317 Bond Approval Voter Threshold

• •To pass a bond (like borrowing money for schools or roads), at least two-thirds of the voters must say 'yes'.
• •It's not just most voters—it has to be a *big* majority (2 out of every 3).
• •If fewer than two-thirds agree, the bond doesn’t get approved.

A town wants to borrow money to build a new park.

If 100 people vote, at least 67 must vote 'yes' for the park bond to pass. If only 60 say 'yes', it fails.
