Sorry, Larry. Again, you're guessing. There's insufficient data to make an assumption, much less confirm a hypothesis. We've discussed ad nauseum that the legally binding language with some teeth in it is missing from the ballot. Doug gave a very clear explanation of why he thinks that is the case. Bob thinks we're going to go through 93 months of hell, but he is guessing as well. There are no absolutes for any of us.

What will happen if MAPS doesn't pass? Absolutely nothing. No public works. No new jobs. We will have to rely on the private sector, which people like BOB hate and fear the most, to do everything for us. Given the fact that we're in a recession, they could conceivably do nothing. Regardless, FAR less will happen in OKC than if MAPS passes, even if it is imperfect.

So, I'm going to vote for hope, for the possibility of change and improvement, for moving forward. I'm going to trust that our public officials do precisely what we have asked them to do. And, I'm going to see if I can figure out a way to get on that oversight committee, if we have the opportunity to have one. I feel very, very comfortable voting yes, and if MAPS passes, I fully expect to be as happy with what we accomplish as I have been with the prior MAPS. That's all.

Pertinent to this discussion is this post from Midtowner on a different thread:

"Urbanity has cited both state statue and city charter issues which have me convinced that the single-subject rule actually does apply to OKC."
