Him leaving isn't going to make Austin any better however, as he will be replaced with someone of equal mentality. The Austin city council is focused on spending more, more, more, taxing more, more, more, etc. e.g. the $150m wasted on a light rail; http://www.forbes.com/forbes/welcome/?t ... ent-waste/
I've been wanting to relocate to a more conservative town, but at the same time feel a duty to stay and vote conservative in Austin. Each day that passes it seems to be more and more of a lost cause here in Austin, with no end in sight to government spending and rising taxes.
