To support your case, you expand on the rail system-for which there are no future plans to enhance transit in Oklahoma! It looks to me as though you don't like this MAPS3 proposal. Why are you voting yes? Because you believe in an axiom? I like you, only agree with a few of the proposed projects. This is why I'm voting "no." I like you, only support less than 50% of the proposal! Unlike you, I believe that a no vote DOES NOT slam the brakes on OKC's "momentum," nor is it harmful in any way. I believe that by stopping this sloppy proposal, we can put something more effective together that DOES correspond with the true needs of OKC. The citizens of OKC were polled and asked what we want- this is not it. I am aware of the "business press" Oklahoma City has received recently. Press comes and goes. Do you truly think that OKC has withstood the national economic condition "in no small part due" to MAPS 1 and 2? If so, I don't have much confidence in your knowledge of Oklahoman economy or history.
