Election day is February 11. Ballot return rate as of Feburary 6 was 18.43% for the Arlington levy and 16.91% for the Lake Stevens Bond.

Arlington School District’s ask to taxpayers is a $75 million levy over six years. Lake Stevens School District, meanwhile, has a $314 million bond on the ballot. Arlington needs a simple majority to pass while Lake Stevens needs 60%.

Arlington tried two measures last year and both failed. The second, a levy attempt in November, narrowly failed with 47.3% of voters supporting the measure.
