Voters in mid-Michigan will be deciding on several school and municipal bond proposals in Tuesday's Election.

Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., and results will start to come in afterwards.

Our team of neighborhood reporters have previewed several of the biggest races that we'll be following throughout the night. Those races include:

Ingham ISD School Bond Proposal Passes
Voters in Ingham County passed a nearly $100 million special education that will affect 12 school districts. The bond will fund updates to one existing facility and support the construction of a brand-new building.

According to district officials, the bond will raise the tax rate by just over half a mill. For a home at the county's median value of $153,000, that works out to about $42 a year.

Fire officials say the current 80-year-old station is failing, while some residents express concerns about the cost, plan and tax fatigue.
