3/4s Of School Districts OK’d Levies

A preliminary report on supplemental levy elections in held in school districts around the state compiled by the Idaho State Department of Education shows that of 36 school districts holding supplemental levy votes on Tuesday, 27 won passage from local voters, while nine failed, including, notably, one in the state's largest school district, Meridian. That means 75 percent passed/Betsy Russell, Eye On Boise. More here.

Question (warning: Loaded Question ahead): Does this mean that average taxpayers support public education funding more than most North Idaho legislators?
