PAATZ's Pollsters Were Wrong Too

It's Wednesday, November 5th.  We stayed up late last night anxiously awaiting election results.  Yes on Z polls said that support for Measure Z was above 70 percent.  Nevertheless, PAATZ publicly declared that her pollsters said there was no way Measure Z would pass. 

Truman couldn't defeat Dewey either. 

Perhaps the same pollsters who made the Dewey prediction also worked for the No on Z campaign. 

Measure Z passed in spite of needing a super-majority of two-thirds of the voters.  In fact, the numbers for renewing Measure Z were very close to the numbers voting for Measure Z in 2004.  I think this shows that the Fresno County community likes what it sees at Chaffee Zoo.  Low admission prices.  Spectacular exhibits.  Friendly staff.  Exciting animals. 

We can look forward to a "knock your socks off" African Adventure exhibit opening in September 2015.  (It would have already been completed had it not been for a few zoo detractors trying to stop the construction at every turn.)  Then be ready for more incredible exhibits with the renewal of Measure Z.   

Thanks Fresno for believing and seeing the vision of what can happen by spending an extra penny when you purchase a few burgers and fries for lunch.
 
  I am told that out of small things comes that which is great!  This is true of Measure Z and Fresno's Chaffee Zoo!
