In the elections in Nevada County today, Prescott’s voters endorsed a one-cent sales tax on retail goods as a way of paying the town’s debt for an electricity bill. Meanwhile, in the southern part of the county, nearly two-thirds of Nevada Public School District’s voters gave a vote of confidence to education, approving a raise in the property taxes there to support a school millage.

The final vote breakdown was as follows:

For Prescott’s One Cent Tax:  248  Against: 20

For Nevada School District’s millage: 187  Against: 108.
