§ 13211 Bond Approval Voter Requirement

• •To pass a bond (like borrowing money for a big project), at least two-thirds of the voters must say 'yes'.
• •This rule is for special elections where people vote on whether to borrow money for things like schools or roads.
• •If fewer than two-thirds agree, the bond doesn’t pass, and the project won’t get the money.

A town wants to build a new school and needs to borrow $10 million. They hold a vote to decide.

If 100 people vote, at least 67 of them must vote 'yes' for the bond to pass. If only 60 people vote 'yes,' the bond fails, and the school won’t get built.
