[Note: Nicholas Johnson has no formal ties to either MidAmerican or Citizens for Public Power, although he receives information from both. Aside from the potential impact of public power on his monthly utility bills and property taxes he has nothing to gain or lose from the proposal, financially, professionally, politically, socially or personally. He's just trying to figure out the legal and political significance of the forthcoming vote.]
