City backs bike lanes big time

Seems some clown hacked the Web site at the city of Coeur d'Alene to vote 5,000 times in a poll that asked residents whether they supported the continued expansion of bike lanes in town. A Facebook Friend explains: "The city's IT department discovered over 5,000 votes from the same I.P. address to cast all "NO" votes. The city has removed the votes from this one user. The results are now back to 96% "YES" in favor of continuing to expand the cities bike lane system. (Largest poll response the city has had.)
