Readers Think Rex Sinquefield Will Fund Campaign To Repeal Earnings Tax
Readers think, by a wide margin, that voters in April 2011 will retain our 1% earnings tax.
Q:Â Now that voters approved Proposition A, what do you think will happen in St. Louis next April?
- Rex Sinquefield funds an expensive campaign but city voters keep the earnings tax 87 [51.48%]
- Rex Sinquefield doesn’t fund the repeal campaign and city voters keep the earnings tax 37 [21.89%]
- Rex Sinquefield funds an expensive campaign and city voters repeal the earnings tax 21 [12.43%]
- Rex Sinquefield doesn’t fund the repeal campaign still city voters repeal the earnings tax 15 [8.88%]
- Unsure/no opinion 6 [3.55%]
- Other answer… 3 [1.78%]
Many also think Rex Sinquefield will fund the repeal campaign, just as he did with the Proposition A campaign.
- rex gets a nose job.
- Rex tries to remove the KC tax first, since it was closer to passing there.
- KC will eventually repeal, STL never will.
One thing is certain, the usually boring April general election will be more interesting than usual.

The STL Business Journal noted that KC with an aggressive campaign for 'No on A' from pols did not prevent the KC city majority from voting to put repeal on the April ballot.
STL voters with not as much of a campaign voted to keep the earnings tax of the ballot. Hmm.
