Tennessee voters don’t want to pay for construction of a Major League Baseball stadium in Nashville, according to a new Beacon Center poll of 1,200 state residents.
The poll asked if people support using state tax dollars to fund the construction of a stadium and 58% were opposed with only 27% supportive.
The opposition was similar for those in the state’s largest counties (Shelby, Davidson, Hamilton and Knoxville) with 61% opposed.
The opposition was also nearly the same amongst different education levels and those who identify as Republican, Democrat or independent.
