The corporate authorities of such school district shall in all cases fix the time of holding such election on the day of the municipal or of the general election, unless more than ninety days elapse between the date of the resolution or vote desiring such increase and the day of holding the said municipal or general election. If any other day be fixed for such election the expense of holding the same shall be paid by the school district for the benefit of which it shall be held. In receiving and counting and in making return of the votes cast the inspectors, judges and clerks of said election shall be governed by the laws of this commonwealth regulating municipal elections, and the vote shall be counted by the court as is now provided by general laws governing municipal elections; and all the penalties of said election laws for the violation thereof are hereby extended to and shall apply to the voters, inspectors, judges and clerks voting at and in attendance upon the elections held under the provisions of this act.
