I don't think people outside of Detroit can appreciate how significant this is that it's even on the ballot. Behind Trump being defeated, it's the thing I care about most this year. Polling wasn't very widespread on this issue, so no one really knows what the people think about it. I have seen a lot more pro signs (I don't think there's an organized opposition), but "higher taxes" speaks for itself too often to many voters. I'm optimistic though. I will cry with joy the first day I get to ride a transport system to work.
