UPDATED: Election Day in Plymouth and Canton

Plymouth and Canton communities will decide whether Plymouth-Canton Community Schools will get a $114.4 million bond issue to build a new middle school and upgrade technology, facilities and buses.

Canton has had a steady stream of voters trickling into the polls on Election Day Tuesday, according to officials.

In contrast, the City of Plymouth was experiencing light turnout all morning, according to the clerk's office. 

Canton reported 900 voters at its 10:30 a.m. call into the Wayne County Clerk's office. However, because of the nature of a special election, officials said they really couldn't compare to previous years because each election was something different.

Canton residents McIver Richardson and his wife, Mary, stopped by their polling location, Summit on the Park, just before noon. Both voted yes for the $114.4 million bond proposal for Plymouth-Canton Schools.

"Most neighborhoods want schools to have good education," Richardson said. "Good schools raise property values. And the kids deserve it. They need new technology."
