You'd think the voters would show up to remedy that situation.
Well, we did, ya know. That's how Bronco got elected and re-elected - he promised to do things and he did those things. Now he's a bit directionless, and he seems to only be able to spend money and little else.

If you want to talk politics, the Glenmore interchange was delayed for so long because there's some extremely influential people that live near there. They had been vehemently opposed to the interchange (and probably still are) for decades.

Wanna know why there's two 14th streets? Same thing.
