Thereupon the county commission shall call an election in like manner as already prescribed for calling an election in a school tax district in the special districts or district and adjacent territory proposed to be consolidated, and if a majority of the qualified electors voting in the combined territories of the districts or district and adjacent territory proposed to be consolidated shall vote favorably, the districts or district and adjacent territory shall be consolidated into a new special school tax district, and the tax as voted shall be levied and collected in the new district as a unit, but the creation of a new district shall not operate to relieve the county board of education of liability for the just obligations made prior to such consolidation. In the event a majority of the qualified electors voting in the combined territories of the districts or district and adjacent territory proposed to be consolidated shall vote against the proposed consolidation, said consolidation shall not be made and each district shall remain as before with the same taxing privileges.
