vote, at any regular or any special election called and notice given for such
purpose, upon the question whether the irrigation district shall thereafter operate

filing of a statement of the results of the election in the manner provided by section
37-41-112, the irrigation district is thereafter governed by this article 42. The
election of the district to come under this article 42 does not invalidate any act or
