Is this true? Was there a vote on this?
The politicians make the decisions and if people don't like it they can vote for someone else but I would bet in some deeply partisan districts they'd vote for anyone on their side. There's a lot of things the majority of the public want but the power that be say no.
- slg 8y agoIn many jurisdictions a referendum is required to spend that type of money. That is one of the reasons that a sibling thread is discussing the Chargers move from San Diego to Los Angeles. A vote was required in San Diego and the Chargers knew it would not go in their way. You are free to lobby your own local government to make a similar requirement for a referendum.
