Election results have come in for the vote on the Regional Transportation District, and St. Joseph County voters overwhelmingly voted against the proposal.

A staggering 95% (19,640) voted "no", and 5% (1,053) voted "yes".

The numbers total to 10% of the eligible voters coming out, which is close to the the number that vote for a normal primary. Officials say it's a great turnout for an election that many were not aware of until the last few days.

Porter County also turned down the measure, 80% to 20%. To see those results click here.
