If 60 per cent or more of the people in a district are against the formation, organic zation will be delayed for 30 days. During the 30 days, a petition against its formation may be filed, according to state law. If such a petition is filed, another election shall be held in the rejecting dis trict within 60 days. If half or more then approve the formation, the new district shall be organized. If a ma jority still is opposed, the new district will not be organized, the law provides.
