percent undecided. now as to why the difference, we spoke with david damore -- a unlv political science professor. 01:34 in this case, if you looked at the questions, they're very different questions. one of them uses the raiders and gives the total public contribution of $750 million dollars, the other one just talks about a domed stadium and talks about the small increase in the room tax. 01:51: so it's very very different prompts that people are going to be cueing on if they don't know much about the issue. reason for the difference is? an upset valley mother is speaking out tonight.....
