Summary

In the June 9, 2003 school election, Linda McDonough and John Fiegen were reelected to four-year terms, and the school operating millage Headlee rollback passed 118–27.

Evidence limits

The brief newspaper result does not provide turnout, precinct detail, or the full ballot text. The forum post independently matches the millage totals but does not supply an official canvass.
