Farmington Bond Election Absent Voter Ballots at Presidential Primary Levels
More than 6,000 voters have already turned in their ballots for the Tuesday election.
Farmington and Farmington Hills city clerks say that absent voter ballots for the Farmington Public Schools special election are coming in at high levels.
