Vote!

May 13, 2008 at 8:30am By: Mr. Wilson Posted in The Lincolnite Blog

Your high school civics teacher wants you to vote today. Don’t have any idea what’s on the ballot? The Journal Star has a quick guide.

One of the most interesting issues will be the Lancaster County jail funding proposal. I’ve talked about the mess that is the jail several times, so I won’t go into it again. Will Lincolnites vote for the funding, knowing it’s probably the best financing mechanism for the all-but-inevitable jail? Or will they send the County Board a message by voting nay, forcing the Board to find money elsewhere?

I just heard them say on KLIN that the jail will be built regardless of the outcome of today’s vote, and that they’ve selected the contractor.

I LOVE AMERICA!

Okay, I guess the vote has to do with whether we should pay off the prison in 10 years or in 26 years or something to that effect.
