New poll about Fort Wayne citizens and their opinions about building a new baseball stadium Downtown

The Journal Gazette and The Indiana News Center conducted a poll of 400 Fort Wayne citizens and asked them what they thought about Downtown Fort Wayne and building a new baseball stadium downtown. The results were NOT surprising.

Check out the results of the poll:

Question two is the most important in my humble opinion: Do you believe a downtown baseball stadium should be built, or not?
Yes 15%
No 71%
Refused/don’t know 14%

Question ten is almost equally important: As proposed, Wizards’ owners would pay $5 million of the cost for a $30 million new stadium. Is that too much for the owners to pay, too little, or about right?
Too much 3%
Too little 67%
About right 30%

Polls have to be taken with "a grain of salt." They are often inaccurate and I do not put a lot of faith in them.

I talk to a lot of people in Fort Wayne. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that a strong majority of Fort Wayne citizens oppose building a new baseball stadium downtown.
