Voters living in Tucson’s suburbs and nearby towns helped bring down the county’s road bond plan last week, an analysis of voting data shows.
Precinct results from last Tuesday’s bond election shows voters in Marana, Oro Valley, Vail as well as many residents in the eastern and southern edges of the city rejected Proposition 425, the $200 million proposal for roads.
Political observers on both sides of the issues said prior to the election that the road bond plan had the best chance to pass in the seven-question, more than $800 million package the county presented.
