To pass, the measure needs the support of two-thirds of the voters in Livermore Valley Joint Unified School District.

LIVERMORE — In early returns for a special election Tuesday evening, voters appeared to be very narrowly supporting the Livermore Valley Joint Unified School District’s parcel tax renewal measure, known as Measure A.

In the first batch of results issued by the Alameda County Registrar of Voters office, yes votes for the tax measure renewal were slightly eclipsling the two-thirds mark. There are a total of nearly 59,000 registered voters in the district in Alameda County, and a little more than 14,500 votes had been counted as of Tuesday at 8:09 p.m. It’s unclear what the total voter turnout will be in this special mail-in ballot election.

If approved, the measure would extend by seven years an existing $138 tax levied against all property owners in the school district boundary annually.The school district, which had about 13,300 students enrolled last year, collects about $4 million annually from the tax currently. The ballot description of the tax measure says it would “renew expiring local school funding without increasing taxes,” and says the money “cannot be taken by the state.”
