As of the moment, about 1,500 shy of the magical 48,669 needed by August 1 to put the repeal of the half-cent transit tax on the November ballot.
To put that in perspective — I haven’t signed it. Yet.
Is it too megalomaniacal to want to be the 48,669th name on the petition? Probably, huh?
I should get crackin’ then and get my name in the hopper like everyone else who thinks spending $9 billion on a transit plan to handle a fraction of our commuting traffic is nuts.
Now where did I put that petition?
