The first round of results are in for Tuesday’s (April 25, 2023) Special Election, and the Kent School District Bond is failing, while King County Proposition No. 1 (Crisis Care Centers Levy) is passing.

The $495 million school district bond requires a 60% majority to pass, and it’s currently failing with a 54.13% “No” vote.

If approved with a simple majority, the Crisis Care Centers Levy would fund behavioral health services and capital facilities, including a countywide crisis care centers network, increased residential treatment; mobile crisis care; post-discharge stabilization; and workforce supports.
