9:13 PM: Green Bay Referenda Soundly Defeated
A referendum seeking permission to build a $69 million high school in Green Bay, the district's fifth, has lost big. Unofficial results show 15,946 voting against the referendum, with just 8,217 voting in favor.
A second question, asking whether the school district could exceed revenue limits by $2.1 million per year for a 15 year period beginning in 2009-10, was defeated by an almost identical margin. In that vote, 15,840 voted no, while 8,038 voted yes.
