Tomorrow's Transit Tax Vote is a Historic Day for Atlanta

In case you haven't been paying attention, voters in 10 counties in the metropolitan Atlanta region will vote tomorrow on a transportation sales tax referendum - referred to as T-SPLOST - that would raise $6.14 billion over a decade for regional transportation projects and another $1 billion for smaller, local projects. 

With advocates calling the referendum "an Olympic moment" for the region and opponents calling it "a potential mistake of historic proportions," Hart calls the vote "Atlanta's next historic move" and argues that "[n]ot many decisions in Atlanta's past carry more weight."

With recent polls suggesting the referendum will fail, Hart takes a look at some other notably divisive initiatives that have changed the trajectory of the city.
