Why November 2012 is the Best Time to Consider a Bond • Many districts are proceeding to the ballot with bonds ranging from $6 million - $900 million. • A Presidential Election, featuring large numbers of parents, young people, women, and Democrats – are excellent demographics for this type of measure.
