Crunching the numbers on the opponents of the Mayor's plan to sell off the Fairgrounds

Richard Lawson with the deets in a revealing article:

Some 35,000 Nashvillians have signed petitions to save the fairgrounds, albeit that’s according to proponents of keeping the place intact. Whatever the actual number, the number is looking like a lot. Save My Fairgrounds is working through thousands of pages of petitions now with many signatures on each page.

Richard also compares those numbers to perceived convention center opponent numbers and explains why the Fairgrounds opposition is much stronger than the Mayor expected.
