Advocate editorial:
Now that East Baton Rouge Parish voters have defeated Mayor Kip Holden’s $901 million tax and bond plan for capital improvements, voters won’t be seeing any version of this proposal until at least next year.

In the meantime, parish officials and supporters of the tax proposal should reflect on why the plan failed so that they can build consensus around a proposal that has a better chance of passage.
