Shock and awe at City Hall

Today, the broad coalition opposed to the Parking Plot foisted upon us by Mayor Mallory, and Roxanne Qualls and the other five sycophants on Council submitted their referendum petitions to the City Finance Director.

By the numbers:


  • 869 partial petitions 
  • 315 circulators from all of Cincinnati's 52 neighborhoods
  • 8,729 signatures required
  • 19,803 signatures submitted (2.3 times the minimum number needed)
  • 29 days from beginning to end
  • An average of 683 signatures per day
As this story from WCPO.com relates, Mayor Mallory reacted with a flash of anger when he learned of the outpouring support from opponents of the Parking Plot.  We were gratified by the reaction.

Today was...shock and awe at City Hall.
