@koco5news: Oklahoma County voters are being asked to approve a two-fifths-of-a-cent sales tax to fund the remainder of a new jail project, with supporters and opponents voicing strong opinions.

J :

Bruh. I already voted yes because I thought it was a good idea. I even sat there and read it and it really felt like it was going to go towards like mental health programs and all good things and it’s just a fucking scam. I really do hate it here.

Sahara :

No, we already have too much sales tax!

Zoe&Pepper :

And then in a couple more years there’ll be another request for more $$. Figure it out with what you already got.

Amber :

State and local leaders are constantly pocketing and misappropriating money as soon as they get funding. This is a statewide trend. I moved here in 2023, came from a great state, significantly lower population, lower taxes and the infrastructure was far more advanced than it is in Oklahoma. I’ve never seen, been to, or lived in a more corrupt state than Oklahoma. Selling our house ASAP and jumping ship, so our kids can actually have a future that doesn’t surround them with corruption, poor opportunity, and low life white trash druggies as their primary peers.
