Not all residents who are against the A’s stadium in Fremont, but still vote for Steve Cho . I really don’t know if Gus Morrison support the NUMMI site but he is against the Pacific Commons. Lew Wolff still can build a Ballpark Village near NUMMI and still allow the him to build housing at Pacific Commons only if they build a stadium in Fremont.

The A’s done a poll few years later, it shows that Fremont do want the A’ in Fremont. It very small NIMBY’s less than 700. More that 1,000 fans support the A’s on Fremont.

From Tri City Beat blog:

MLB officials spoke with Fremont City Manager Fred Diaz this week. They told him that no city had been eliminated and wanted to know more about land aquisition as well as on-site and off-site infrstructure improvements.
Diaz expects the city to meet with MLB officials within the next two weeks.

Just from looking at the group’s wall occasionally I can say that there’s better discourse in the comments section here (even when there’s a flame war) than there.

For example, on the LGO facebook page there is no mention of the city of Oakland looking into a new football stadium and how that might affect the the A’s. Kinda seems like an important issue to ignore, no?

If anyone makes a large scale decision based on the size of a facebook group they are an idiot.

re: The majority of Fremont residents do want the A’s in Fremont.

Has a poll been taken to support that notion? Seems to me there is considerable support for bringing the A’s to Fremont. It was stopped by a small, vocal group of NIMBYs.
