St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay posted an
online poll yesterday asking readers to vote on several of the issues he mentioned during his
Inaugural Address on Tuesday.
So far it seems readers of Slay's blog agree with most of the mayor's suggestions in his address -- including the ideas of
merging the city into the county and
giving the city control of the police department.
I know. I know. Hardly surprising given that readers of Slay's blog are probably for the most part his supporters. But there were two surprising results to the poll -- at least to me.
The first is that most respondents as of this writing believe
banning smoking in the city should be a relatively simple task. The second was that when asked how they'd like the city's website to look, readers cast aside Google, Facebook and Twitter to vote that
the site should mimic stltoday.com!
Really? Stltoday.com?
I suppose those same readers enjoy scavenger hunts.
