And 32% voted yes. About two-thirds of voters did not want retired law enforcement who are allowed to carry guns in schools.<\/p>\n<p>The $2.8 million would have paid for seven class III police officers from Matawan and Aberdeen, two school resource officers and technology, safety equipment and security vehicles. It also would have increased taxes in Aberdeen by $250 a year and in Matawan by $280 a year. <\/p>\n<p>Because of the no vote, there will be no tax increase.
