California

I voted for the fucking guy and I was a daily turnpike driver. He wanted to float and additional $30 Billion bond and have half the money go to the turnpike and half go to balance his budget. That one time shot would have resulted in $120B by the time it was paid off in 75 years, with a possible (and you know probable) 15-year extension. He wanted to choose a politically chosen company to manage the bond for tens of millions. It would have jacked up an Exit 7A - 14C commute to almost $70 a day! He wanted people getting on at Exit 1 and riding the full length to pay $100 each way! Needless to say, not many people could absorb paying that much money, especially when there aren't really any open roadways that takes you up there easily.

This had me research all about how the NJTPK is nothing but a political patronage pit.

I forgot, he also wanted to create a separate board for this too, where the board's salary would be in the multi-millions per year. Over that 75 year period the board's salary alone would have been in the billions.
