With 76% of the polls in, the fate is now sealed for Amendment 1. It will fail. Razz

The Citizens of Corpus Christi were not taken in by all the Big Money Spin. Thatnk each and every one of you who voted! I wish I would have been able to!

Just caught the 10:00 news. One of the city councilmen was saying that the term "Don't let them steal your beach" got the people out to vote against Proposition 1.

Wish I could have voted.

I may just drive down to Corpus and drive on the beach in the moonlight.

HAHA..you can bet the council members will be sore losers and come up with every excuse in the book. Let's face it, they are LIARS and THEIFS and just like any other common criminal...thats just what they do..Now let's follow the lead from the citizens of Aransas and put these scumbags out on their butts..!!
later,
Ernie

Ah, the spoils of victory Laughing

Now onto the next phase, anyone willing to not use any of the &&*&off business' who contributed money to the wallet suckers? I for one will not use any service those greedy people offer.

I'm glad enough of us that actually use the beach got out and voted! Great job to everyone who has been out spreading the word and fighting for our beaches. I probably wouldn't have voted if it wasn't for this issue. Thanks again everyone.
