Jackson County Voters Earn Second Chance To Keep Chiefs?!?!

Actually this one is important . . .

BECAUSE THERE IS NO ECONOMIC DATA INDICATING THAT TURNING AWAY REPEAT SUPER BOWL CHAMPS IS ANYTHING BUT SILLY!!!

However . . .

We'll stipulate that it's gonna be expensive.

Also if we're gonna spend the cash . . . 

Jackson County Chiefs fans deserve a world-class football stadium dome that would be a marvel for other events as well.

UPDATE!!!

The Executive just released a statement offering an objection to this plan. We posted that in its entirety. 

The response . . .

Legislator Abarca says these are "exclusively different proposals" and he's going to allow the Missouri SecState to do the interpretation over the objections of the Executive's office . . .

Also . . .

The Legislator notes that locals who have been watching this ongoing war of words remember that the Exec also offered the idea of a separate tax for the Chiefs.

NOW, here's the start of this evening's conversation . . .

One of the ordinances asks Jackson County voters to authorize a 3/16-cent sales tax for 30 years to help retain the Chiefs in the county.

The second ordinance asks voters to authorize a 3/8-cent sales tax for 40 years for the same purpose.
