Maybe you didn't read far enough into the article to get to the part where the AG also said it was hard to know how much money was being spent because of the way the bills were put together?
Great, they didn't spend as much...but frankly no matter how you look at this its hard to find a silver lining. There was no process in how the projects were chosen, and a lot of money was just poured into Clements riding. Its basically indefensible.
