The first numbers are in and so far, it’s a blowout win for the Coupeville School District.
Voters are overwhelmingly approving two replacement levies, which would replace ones voted into place in 2022.
While levies require 50% + 1 vote to pass, Coupeville’s have pulled in much more than that through the first counts released Tuesday night by Island County officials.
Proposition 1 – Replacement Educational Programs and Operations Levy has tallied 1,588 yes votes, or 63.67% percent.
Meanwhile, Proposition 2 – Replacement School District Technology Capital Projects Levy is at 64.71% with 1,610 positives votes.
As of Tuesday, Island County states that 6,381 ballots have been counted, with an estimated 1,200 ballots remaining.
That second number can increase if additional ballots with valid postmarks are received.
Officials will issue another count Wednesday night, with the election finalized Feb. 20.
