Tom, I don't agree.  Presumably all the folks that wanted the courthouse 
expanded (including employees who are most impacted) would have been 
advised/reminded of the date and gone to vote Yes.  That leaves those not 
realizing the vote was being held probably would have mostly voted No.  Since 
the No's carried the day by a 2 to 1 margin anyway, not voting due to lack of 
reminders doesn't seem to fit.  It seems the electorate did not want this 
bond and went and said so.

My logic; for what it's worth.
