    The big winner is... Money. Money wins the election.

    Those initiative results are county-wide. I strongly suspect that residents of the City of Tacoma voted for I-522 to label GMO food. Not that that would excuse voting down Prop. 1. Thanks, Simpson Kraft pulp mill, for supporting crappy streets and holding back Tacoma's progress with your big donations to the "No" campaign.

    I wish that that were the case. Prop 1 was a Tacoma only vote. Only 23K votes total (for and against). The county wide votes are totaling near 100K I guess that my fellow Tacoman's like crappy potholed roads.

      I was talking about Tacoma's probable support for I-522. I'm aware that Prop 1 was only voted on in city limits, and I know it got trounced...

      I guess my fellow Tacoman's prefer affordable utility rates over another mismanaged city boondoggle.
