I Hate to Say I Told You So, But…

After getting home on election night and filing my stories, I decided to lie down and save the column for later. So I made my tea (Earl Grey, hot, for my fellow Trekkies) and put on some Gilbert & Sullivan to unwind, H.M.S. Pinafore. And as I was listening, it came to me.

School districts that lost Indiana tax referendums confront a tough question: What should we cut?

Did you know search engines like Google are changing the way you see news? Keep Chalkbeat’s valuable education coverage at the top of your feeds by clicking here and checking the box next to our name. This story was co-reported with WFYI. In Gas City, the cuts start now. The small Mississinewa Community School district’s ballot measure to increase property taxes lost by just 71 votes. So starting Monday, the district will cut one of its two school resource officers — and Superintendent Jeremy Fewell expects the cuts to continue from there. “We need to use as much money as we can to just keep our facilities up to par for the time being,” he said. “There’s no reason to wait going forward. We know these cuts have to happen, so why delay the inevitable at this point in time?” The district is one of 12 that failed to pass their referendums for more funding in Tuesday’s election, according to unofficial results. Those districts’ leaders must now fill budget holes driven by several factors — including Indiana’s property tax reforms enacted last year that will leave districts with less of a significant source of local funding. There could be a

Final Tippecanoe Co. tallies confirm Democratic effect on local races

LAFAYETTE, IN — Democrats claimed five contested seats in a shocking sweep a Purdue political scientist says is a sign that President Donald Trump's decisions met opposition at the local voting booth. Long before the last ballots were tallied Wednesday afternoon, Republican favorites for Tippecanoe County office were coming to terms with resounding defeats. A total of 45,072 people cast their ballots in Tippecanoe County, more than a third on Election Day. At 38.3% of registered voters, it’s a sharp uptick from the 2022 midterms, which saw only 32.1% turn out. “The local level is a sort of general reflection of national trends,” said James McCann, interim head of Purdue’s Department of Political Science. Affordability was the word, he said, pointing to the cost hikes associated with tariffs and immigration policies. “Middle-class voters are really feeling more pinched,” he said. “(The president’s) decisions had a direct impact on everyday life,” and preliminary data suggest affected voters turned out in force to sweep Republicans off the table. Contested Tippecanoe County races Democrat Andrea Burniske beat longtime public servant Julie Roush to become Tippecanoe County’s District 1 commissioner . Roush, a Republican, is closing out her term-limited eight years as county clerk.
