The URI Narragansett Q? Can I ask why?

Partly because the ballot is intentionally deceptive in that it tells you the amount of money that is going to be borrowed, instead of the amount of money taxpayers will actually have to pay, but also because I just don't think its needed. URI already gets millions. It doesn't need 100 million more to fix up a satellite campus that used for a couple small-enrollment majors. And frankly, their whole "Vote yes on 1" campaign is annoying.

Fair enough, I suppose I didn't see the ballot as deceiving given I'd read the questions in the mailer that was sent out a few weeks ago.
