Preliminary results show voter support for bonds for new middle schools in Champaign and Mahomet.

Mahomet-Seymour is asking voters to approve bonds for a new junior high. This time the referendum would not raise taxes.

The Mahomet-Seymour school district warned Tuesday in a news release that schools may be forced to close if the union representing teachers and staff goes on strike over contract negotiations and that extracurriculars activities would also be canceled.

The project would be funded through $84 million in new bonds and existing county sales taxes.

On Tuesday, voters in the Mahomet-Seymour area decided they did not want to pay for new elementary and junior high school buildings. According to unofficial Champaign County election results, 54 percent of those who voted were against the referendum.
