Absentee Ballots Have Gone Out on Corporate Welfare for Dolphin's Billionaire Owner. By Geniusofdespair



Whomever designed this ballot should be forced to eat a few copies. Why didn't they use the empty column on the right to make it shorter? There is one friggin' question. One question requires a 17 inch long ballot?

In 30 years the Dolphins are supposed to pay $112,000,000 (part of the deal).  It will never happen. No one will remember (well I would but I will most probably be dead) or they will plead poverty. Or we will all be dead from Global Warming and/or South Korean nuclear bombs.

I voted against the whole stupid thing:  I filled in 91, you should too.

Live now,  not 30 years from now. Stop financing the wealthy! They have enough of our public dollars.

Tell the County Commission, with this vote, that you are not a rube to be toyed with. Send them a clear message to stop giving away public dollars. Make no mistake, a bed tax doesn't just impact tourists.

Broward county knows their citizens are not stupid, they didn't even try to get this deal past them . We deserve the same respect from our county commission.

I saw the first TV ad this morning. It is all about jobs. How many times do they think that will work?

The form of the ballot probably conformed to the maximum space so the printing company could make more money.

One natural disaster an you just wiped out a years worth of income, which puts a major kink in the longer term repayment of these projects. Don't worry the creative finance people on Wall Street will help the county out when it happens.

How's the Dolphin Bill doing in Tallahassee? If it doesn't pass, there will be no election!
