So according to the Times Herald Record more people voted no than voted yes for accepting the proposed budget for the Newburgh School District on May 20.

Today, May 22, 2008 the Record reports:

NEWBURGH -- After an all-day canvass yesterday, the Newburgh School District budget still failed, this time by 62 votes instead of 13. The district put to voters an almost $228 million budget, requiring an additional $4.5 million in revenue from property taxes. The board made no comments when accepting the vote last night as to whether it will hold another vote or use a contingency budget for next year.
