We recently had a $47 million bond election to build new schools and a $9M football stadium. The people who wanted it passed were campaigning in the taxpayer-funded "projects"...and pushing the football stadium as a reason to vote for it.
It failed 81% against to 19% in favor.
BTW, our school enrollment has been declining the past 5 years.
