> Uber and Lyft thought they could negotiate by pointing a gun at people's heads. Austin is the worst possible city to try this in with the possible exception of San Francisco. Yep, completely agree. I think what most people outside Austin don't realize is that Uber/Lyft ran this campaign almost as if they wanted to lose. We received almost a pound of junk mail every week, constant texts, three phone calls, canvassers at our door after 7pm, signs plastered throughout the city. It was just completely dirty and really soured people's opinions. Most people I know who voted against the proposition did it because of Uber's campaign.
