They tried to make me vote for sales tax; I said, "No, no, no."

Voter #49 at Crown Point in Johnston today voted "no" on Project Destiny.

I've got nothing against trails, the arts and any of the other things PD funds MAY be used for. But that's just it. The plan is so poorly mapped out, there's no enforcement of fund use, and many communities have just voted to use the money for further property tax reduction (including my current home in Johnston).

You want to spend money of "community betterment"? Hey, I'm a liberal, and I'm all for making our neighborhoods better for the common good.

Just show me a plan that actually promises to do that.

Polls are open until 8 p.m. today.
