Unofficially, Jail Approved by Huge Amount

The election results aren’t technically official yet, but Ward County’s request to take out a bigger loan against the previously approved half-cent sales tax was approved by a wide margin Tuesday.

Here are the unofficial tallies:

YES: 3,105 votes |  ~82%

NO: 703 votes | ~18%

The expansion project is expected to get underway this summer. Here are Sheriff Kukowski’s pre-election comments on the construction timeline.
