Whenever an election for approval of the establishment of a community college is held as provided in subsection (d) of Kan. Stat. Ann. § 71-1103, and amendments thereto, the results of such election shall be certified to the state board by the election officer of each county in which there is located any part of the territory of the proposed community college. The state board shall tabulate and canvass the vote if more than one county is involved, and shall examine the vote if only one county is involved. After such examination or canvass the state board shall announce the result of the election and if it finds that a majority of those voting at the election voted in favor of the proposition to establish the community college, it shall so announce and issue an order establishing the same.
