As suspected, the delay in viaduct decision meant delay time to find money for a tunnel:

“After years of immobilizing conflict between the City of Seattle, King County and the state, elected leaders have agreed on a replacement for the earthquake-damaged Alaskan Way Viaduct – a deep bore tunnel under downtown Seattle.” [strangebedfellows [1]]

At this point, it looks like it’s everyone against Frank Chopp (and the Seattle voters who “preferred” neither the tunnel nor viaduct option the last time they were on the open-ended ballot [mb [2]]). Nevermind the “no, and hell no” interpretation folks, it’s time to get ready for years of digging and mole people! At least it isn’t the “hell no” option, right?
