Oklahoma election results: Lincoln County rejects jail, EMS measures

The Shawnee News-Star Lincoln County voters on Tuesday rejected two different propositions that would have resulted in increased property taxes to fund a new county jail and an Emergency Medical Service district for the county. Just less than 2,500 votes were cast in each measure. The jail proposition proposed bonds to build a new $13.5 million Lincoln County jail, with 1,881 voters or 78.31 percent voting no. There were 521 who voted yes, or 21.69 percent. Voters also nixed a proposition to create an Emergency Medical Service District. In that measure, 1,533 or 63.72 percent voted no, while 873 people, or 36.28 percent approved. The EMS issue would have levied a special annual recurring ad valorem tax of three (3) mills on the dollar of assessed valuation of all taxable property in Lincoln County, effective in the 2021 tax year, and would have remained in effect until lawfully repealed.
