Voters agreed and they invested.

The vote was 2,049 yes, or 81.25% in support to 473 no votes, 18.75% against. All 14 precinct results had been reported to the Oklahoma State Election Board Tuesday night.

There will be $112.9 million for construction and capital improvements and $1.5 million for buses.
