DONIPHAN – The vote “for” a $17.5 million Doniphan-Trumbull Public School bond election has only a 24-vote margin over the “against” votes. Because of that, Doniphan-Trumbull Public School Superintendent Dr. Jeremy Braden said that the school district will have to wait until canvassing boards have met to finalize election results. The election involved results in four counties: Adams, Hall, Hamilton, and Clay Counties.
