Today the Durham County (North Carolina) voters are voting to decide on a sales tax increase that would help fund big improvements to public transit.  Shown below is David McKnight, a local pro-transit man who decided to get a little creative and whipped out a song to encourage voters to vote in support of better public transportation.  So, in appreciation for David’s community service encouraging investment in public transportation, he gets some love from Transportgooru with this blog post and a tweet.

Note: Fellow Redditor, PokeBallsofSteel (yes, that’s his Reddit handle) also notes that David is a skilled violin player. Say a hi to David if you happen to be in the Ninth Street area of Durham (which is near Duke campus?).
