Local Election Stuff
Blount County results are covered here. Not a good day for incumbents (which is usually a good thing) as Cantrell ousted Padgett. And newcomer Finney beat Clabough.
Jamie Hagood easily wins, which surprised nobody.
And, good news, by a 70% margin, Knoxvillians tell the city they can’t use taxpayer money for a new convention center hotel that nobody will use. This despite some allegations that the ballot was worded funny intentionally.
And the town I’m from says not to a sales tax.
