You expect Austin voters to embrace crazy leftwing policies, but turning every grassy median and underpass in the city into a garbage-strewn 24/7 amusement park for drug-addicted transients (with side order of arson and mayhem) was too much even for them, and yesterday they reinstated the camping ban. Proposition B passed 85,830 (57.13%) to 64,409 (42.87%). It’s a grave blow to Austin Mayor Steve Adler, City Councilman Greg Casar, the homeless industrial complex, and a number of random drug dealers.

The twerp could not be more out of touch with Austin. He needs to spend less time blabbing like your standard raging Marxist and start listening to the citizens of Austin who want nothing to do with his hate and ineptitude. https://t.co/ubpzdy9GKl

A massive win for every Austinite who simply wants to live in a safe and clean city. https://t.co/jlmDeIedNX

Austin voters sent a clear and stern rebuke to Austin City leaders today by voting in a landslide:
* FOR Prop B to require Austin to reinstate the public camping ban
* AGAINST making Austin a strong Mayor city
* AGAINST giving vouchers to voters to donate to city campaigns

A devastating night for the legacy of @MayorAdler.
From winning re-election by 40 points…to staking his entire second term on the homeless issue by eliminating all rules….to watching the ban being reinstated in a landslide.
Life comes at ya fast. #ATXCouncil

Casar is taking some big losses tonight…Prop B, Socialist Dollars, and Strong Mayor all looking like they, like his influence, is going down the proverbial dumpster fire.

Major victories today in #ATX. @MayorAdler and @GregCasar can finally shove it talking about how Austinites "wanted" that ban lifted years ago. They didn't then & they've spoken now. Love seeing Greg get put in his place on several items. #PropB @Austin_Network https://t.co/WA8VmcR6Rg

The execution of the camping ban is going to be a shitshow. ATX council is going to throw endless amounts of tax dollars to try to house everyone and increase taxes. This was their plan all along. Our next fight is going to be to stop the homeless industry and non profit grift.
