§ 21931 Bond Election Voting Method

Key Takeaways

  • •People vote 'Yes' or 'No' on bond proposals in elections.
  • •To vote, you mark a cross (+) in the box next to your choice.
  • •This rule has been around since 1943.

Example

Your town wants to build a new school and needs money. They ask voters to approve a bond (like a loan) to pay for it.

On election day, you get a ballot with 'Yes' and 'No' options. You mark a cross (+) in the box next to 'Yes' if you want the school, or 'No' if you don’t. That’s how your vote is counted.
