Early bonds
barely pass
EARLY — Only four votes
separated victory from defeat
in Early Saturday. The $2.6
million bond issue for a new
high school passed by only
four votes, according to
Early Superintendent Bobby
Beard.
The unofficial totals were
371 for and 374 against “We
feel that because of the
narrowness of the margin of
victory, the opposition will
likely call for a recount,"
Beard said Saturday night.
