    What are the numbers on 66? Does it look like it will pass?
    Not scientific in any way but a sponsored ad for 66 has come up on Facebook several times in the last weeks and the comments were 98% hell no. Also looking through the forums on Denver Post articles for 66 the usual Obama zombies are oddly silent on the topic.

    Im hopeful this follows the trend of most votes for increased school taxes and dies overwhelmingly.

    ^^^ Same here

    On a side note, a friend of mine posted a pro 66 piece on his FB page and I gave him the biz about the language of the bill and how misleading it was etc etc, his buddy chimes in defending 66 and states hes a co-author of the bill and how it will be this glorious "For the kids" money grab. I ask him to show me the exact language that says once the money is collected and distributed to the districts that it must be used for teachers, classes and school programs, I also asked what the last sentence on the ballot meant where it says something to the effect of "All taxes collected can be used without further voter approval". Its been several weeks now and no response which tells me I called his bullshit.
