Nearly all Central New York school districts report budgets passing; Fulton, Canastota only defeats so far

It was a tough budget year with aid cuts. Most districts proposed tax increases of less than 3 percent.

Stephen D. Cannerelli / The Post-StandardHannibal residents voted on the school budget, school board elections and propositions at the Hannibal Central School District offices on Cayuga Street on Tuesday.

Central New York voters passed nearly every school budget in the region.

As of 10:45 p.m., the only defeats reported were in Fulton and Canastota districts. The budgets were defeated by less than 10 votes each.

All the remaining districts in the region - except one which was still counting votes - reported budgets passing.

Voters also choose school board members. In many districts, voters decided propositions to purchase school buses and pay for libraries.
