When the door closes on Humboldt’s half-cent sales tax referendum at high noon Tuesday, Allen County Clerk Sherrie Riebel thinks at least 75 percent of eligible voters will have marked ballots.
Through Thursday afternoon 674 of 1,148 ballots have been returned to the clerk’s office. Of those, 75 were set aside because they were undeliverable, leaving 599 to count.
Ballots were mailed Aug. 22, with the legal aside that they weren’t allowed to be forwarded.
