By a margin of 57 to 37, a new Elway Poll finds that voters support ending the stadium taxes. Legislation by Rep. Tina Orwall (D-33, Des Moines), which we covered earlier this year , could make the stadium taxes permanent.

The batch of taxes supports paying off the Kingdome debt (yes, still), paying for Safeco and Qwest fields,  arts funding, expanding the Seattle convention center, and affordable housing for hotel workers, tourism industry employees, and artists.

The conservative Washington Policy Center blog has a post today harping on the permanent extension this morning.
