Alright since the day is finally upon us, come take out your aggression on this poll!

How are you planning to vote or how did you vote?

If you can't vote because you don't live within the OKC limits or decided to abstain, please vote accordingly.

I made this anonymous so no shame either way.

FYI: I believe you have to be logged in to vote.

I’ve received several texts from work group chats and family members begging everyone to vote no because, “we’ll be paying for 95% of the arena out of our pockets.” There is very little understanding of what “without raising sales tax” means… :/

There is a poll on twitter and last night 85% is YES. 2,500 votes counted as of this morning.

I'm outside the OKC city limits, but I certainly would vote YES because it affects ALL of us.

Or at least don't invite her to the parade when the Thunder win the NBA championship

Divorce her

Or continue in a happy marriage where you will attend basketball games together in a beautiful new arena and watch the city continue growing faster than ever over the years. That'll show her

Very much on the fence, but leaning 'No'. Unfortunately, travel resulted me in not being able to vote. Out of town for early voting and day-of.

Looks like almost 90% of the people who can and did vote on this poll are yes. At 3:51PM it is 80 yes and 12 no.

I’m frankly shocked that the margin is that wide here.

Interestingly, "YES" voters are over-represented in the OKC Talk poll by about 23% vs OKC "YES" voters.

This should be when considered the comments we see on here pretty often about how the number of "pro-x" comments equates to the number of people at large in the city that are pro-x.
