Kenton and Visionaries,

This may be lame, but I think the reason it failed to get 2/3 is
because it is virtually impossible to achieve that under any circumstance
in our current political (apolitical) climate. We are a polarized
people locally, statewide, and nationally. In an ordinary election,
some would have called yesterday's results a landslide victory. Yet it
our convoluted democratic process it was a defeat. If I shared the
minority perspective, I am confident I would defend this form of minority
rule.

What are the chances of trying again, albeit at the loss of $500,000?

Susan
