The City of Spokane's Proposition 1 was pretty unpopular, as the map above shows.

It had some small "yes" margins around the downtown core and a few precincts to the north and south. But it went from no to "hell no" as the precincts got further and further from the core, demonstrating what a tough election this was for anything to do with taxes.
