Any candidate who supports the nonsensical rhetoric of Proposal S does not get my vote. Supporting Prop S reveals their gullibility, incapable of being entrusted to run anything.

NO on Proposal S

Renters may believe that Proposal S will not affect them. Guess what? ...when the landlord's property taxes increase, so will your rent

DPS needs a Grand Jury Hearing; not a Robb Bobb hearing. Reclaim our $1.5 Billion.

In ancient Greek mythology, Cassandra was a prophetess who loved her people; one of Cassandra's most famous predictions was that of the Greek siege behind the gift of the Trojan horse.

I thought it ironic that my real name is Cassandra and I've been running all around Detroit to warn people of what 95% already know...that Proposal S is a simply a repeat of 1994.

Proposal S is a Trojan horse; Vote NO.

Prop S will raise your taxes from $2.56 per $1,000 of your home's accessed value to $3.86 .... to a Whopping $13 (disguised as 13 mills) per $1,000 and may continue for well over 30 YEARS! To vote for this bond you are mortgaging yours, your children's and your grandchildren's futures. This could increase your property taxes by thousands of dollars!

Read the actual language for yourselves... then you decide:
