With mayor McDermott being a Republican, we assume the potential preferred site will be in his Hammond city, not the democrat controlled Gary. We also assume the recently announced withdrawal of Congressional candidate Green will leave the overall Region in democrat control.
Yet to be seen, but enacting a new regional sales tax like Indy did for the Hoosier Dome and Lucas Oil Stadium, could be a very hard sell to the local population.
Tom McDermott is no Republican. He has run as a Democrat for both the US House and US Senate. There are no Republicans left in Hammond.
Oops, sorry! Read him and the article wrong. Ha!
Oops – the legislators through Northwest Indana meant Zionsville…
Details?! Except for how it will be paid for, which is a big thing.
Kabuki theatre at its finest.
It’s a billion dollar Republican stunt to “own the libs” in Illinois at taxpayer expense. We will be left paying for an empty stadium after 5 years whose only events will be Monster Jam and maybe an XFL/UFL franchise that gets 7,000 fans.
