Well, at least the local referendum I voted against lost. Otherwise, my property taxes would have been increased to fund a bunch of programs "for the children." Or at least, that was the stated intent. But there was no provision for oversight or accountability. Had the measure passed, you know the money raised would have gone into someone's pocket and the "only a slight increase" would have grown much larger.
Just so tired of paying to raise other people's kids.
Anyway, I can celebrate one small victory. Congratulations to those of you whose candidates won.
