How to turn votes, get more votes?

No vote and no votes, and what to do about both.

Humphrey Public School Board members had a brief discussion about the Aug. 15 bond issue for a $39.5 million 7-12 facility that was defeated 634-458.

The bond election was conducted by mail-in ballot, and there were 1,580 ballots mailed to registered voters in Platte and Madison counties, but only 1,095 ballots returned, meaning 413 did not vote.
