meh. kinda how I feel about it.

I agree with NNN with respect to Franklin County really shouldn't get a say in where the money goes to since we didn't want it in the first place. The team needs to stay and be solvent bc the area needs the team...I don't really have a problem with it.

The arena district was one of the main reasons it didn't pass. It failed almost unanimously in the arena district. That is the ironic part. They not only voted against it, but they then got a ballot issue to move the casino. So not only did they not want it, but they didn't want it in their backyard. Now they are getting the money from it. THEY are the ones who shouldn't benefit from this. Should've just put the damn thing barely into a surrounding county and told Columbus to fuck off.

It's not like it passed wildly though in other area's of Franlin County (unless I am mistaken).
