Many voters filled the Monticello High School commons on Aug. 15 and 16 for satellite voting. The early voting allowed people to fill out absentee ballots regarding the school bond issue. After the two days, an estimated 300 people showed up to vote.
Shay Stephen was one of many younger voters on Aug. 15. Satellite voting allowed voters to fill out absentee ballots containing a measure asking the public whether or not to support a bond issue, which would result in a new middle school.
