It is a city... what do you expect?

Two possibilities here as I see it:

1. The people of Columbus genuinely want to control their own destiny and are willing to pay for it. This is “federalism” at the state level. Nothing wrong with that.

2. This is a test run for ACORN and voter fraud in 2010. Plenty wrong with that.

Comments from the Columbus Dispatch. Some of them will clue you in on the idiots that voted for this. Dispatch.com comments on tax increase

At least you all were able to vote on it. When our sales tax was raised it was done in Sacramento and another in Los Angeles. What is your total sales tax now in Columbus? Ours is 9.75% in LA County.

Columbus is a liberal bastion and has been for decades. You reap what you sow. At least their income tax won’t affect those who don’t live or work there. They are also getting several billion in “stimulus” funds to buy “cops on the street.” It’s amazing that no matter how difficult it is for taxpayers, the government workers never feel the pinch. I wonder what the unemployment rate is in Columbus?

Makes me glad I left Columbus.

89,000 voters decided this issue. Disgraceful.

The issue passed by a little over 3,000 votes.
