That's heresy. The worshippers of the earth mother goddess and their NGOs would never allow such a vote to take place.
Suggestion. Do not drill for petroleum in ANWR. The problem is the price of corn. The solution is to drill for corn oil in ANWR. A large corn oil strike will cause a drop in the price of corn oil. More supply and lower prices, too. The UN will surely get behind that one.
If we hit something other than corn oil when drilling, we may opportunistically exploit that resource, whatever it may be, as well.
