So only 1.5% of Paris voted against this? It sounds like they're going by the will of the voters.

  No, the vote was pure communication by the mayor, it didn't have a budget, nor a list of the streets, nor any details. Paris' administration is rife with corruption and mismanagement, so voters weren't very mobilized for another PR coup.

    Mismanagement is (very) well documented but corruption is a very serious accusation. Do you have examples ? ( that don’t go back to Jacques Chirac )

      I would suggest to look into the various whimsical subsidies of the city hall, the very expensive procurement of useless products or the ruinous public housing policy, that all serve to help the friends of the mayor and the constellation of fake associations that support her. All has been also documented, and has been mentioned repeatedly by the press.

    Informative panels about the vote where pretty much everywhere around the city.

      And yet they couldn't even name one street that would be turned into a pedestrian one! Or give a budget! World class management right here heh?
