    Sounds like they specifically put the questionnaire in a ballot that wasn’t for a very high-turnout election. Apparently if they waited to put this on a higher-turnout election the results could have gone differently.

    Love how the reasoning for rejecting this measure is that the businesses will increase costs to make up for higher wages. So i guess the solution is to never raise wages? Lol?!? Notice how consumer costs have constantly gone up? Notice how the min wage hasn’t? Weird!!!
