The momentum builds to delay the vote

Viaduct ballot lost in political fog. So says the Seattle Times Editorial Board, not some unknown bloggers.

The March 13 vote has been purposely manhandled and should be rescheduled to reflect vetted facts. At it stands now, this bad public policy insults voters' intelligence while it wastes their time.

Gomez!
You are in a mood today! :)

No one is saying that at all.
The reason for delay is to give us a fair range of choices.
There is -- I think it's rather obvious by now, NO EMERGENCY! -- so we have a bit of time to plan. Or to do what we should have done 6 years ago: Repair the darned thing.
