I mean nobody is going to vote against below market rate housing that’s already housed. Seems kind of like voting away free money

23 % of all voters thinks it's a good proposal, heck even among the Center Party voters, the ones really pushing for this, only 44% are in favor. The spin from the government and their supporters have been that this will not affect anyone who's currently renting, even though the ones really pushing for it have been crystal clear that this is only the first step.
