Issue 2A

This is the one in Fort Collins that would impose a moratorium on fracking. I'm seeing a lot of pro-fracking ads on TV (in Denver) but nothing supporting Issue 2A.

Does anyone have any polling numbers? Considering the ads, it's hard to be optimistic about the ban.

And of course there is much greenery and pristine nature in the background as the ordinary citizens tell the viewer why we need the energy and fracking is green.
