"In Texas, Water Referendum Wins, Astrodome Loses" [1]

"AUSTIN, Texas -- Texas voters have proved they are more than willing to spend big bucks on future water projects — but not on sports stadiums."



"In Tuesday's most-watched decision, voters statewide approved $2 billion to finance ambitious drought-fighting initiatives meant to help ensure Texas can meet the needs of its booming population and growing economy for the next 50 years."

The Associated Press had the story November 6, 2013. [2]
