Prop A was what tilted it for me, personally. There is a much bigger national problem with sports leagues wanting new arenas/stadiums without real plans for the abandoned venue. You don't get another one 30 years from now.
On a simpler note, I hope it looks cool

The Spurs can do whatever they want. They are one of the biggest tax payers that San Antonio has. Losing them, would have been a bigger hurt on the public than if there was somehow some increase in property taxes in this election. The city would have been in more financial trouble if Prop B did not pass.
On another note, a lot of other cities are very bummed about this election. San Antonio's gain if you ask me.
