57 % favor smoking bans in buildings open to public, final poll indicates

The blog's week-long poll has indicated that 57.1% favor a ban on smoking in buildings open to the public. Another 14.3 % favor such a law if there is an outdoor smoking area available, while 28.6% opposed the law.

While the issue is moot for many folks such as in Lexington where there is already a smoking ordinance, other places such as in Bourbon County do not have such a rule.

So the issue lives on.

THE COMMON SENSE BLOG The Common Sense Blog is authored by Jimmy Brannon and such other guests who may appear from time to time and is born out of a need for an independent voice based on common sense on a variety of topics. Jimmy Brannon is a Kentucky lawyer, an editor of his family's newspaper which the family has owned since the 1940's spanning three generations, former elected city official and most importantly the father of a child who died of cancer at age 13, Brannon published a book about his son's battle with cancer which is available at links on the blog. While the blog frequently deals with issues of public concern, there will be periodic deviation from the serious and mundane in favor of comedic, musical or other relief.
