Soledad cross measure wins; issue will still head to courtYES...76%SAN DIEGO – City voters decided Tuesday that the Mount Soledad cross should be the federal government's to bear.
Proposition A, aimed at preserving the cross on public land in La Jolla, easily exceeded the two-thirds threshold it needed to pass.
But voters won't have the final word. The controversy heads back to court next month.

Damn - is it really that offensive to this athiest dork that initially whined about it!?!

I wonder how much this fight is costing taxpayers. with such strong voter support to leave the cross as is, why does the whine of one guy make such an impact? this is the stuff that makes me want to smack atheists. you don't see other religions suing to get these types of symbols removed, yet atheists have the gall to say that Christians in America are forceful with their beliefs.
were you living in SD when that drunk fraternity idiot climbed the cross, fell off and impaled himself on one of the iron fence posts?
