Petition drive targets public funding for St. Louis Cardinals ballpark
A group named Coalition Against Public Funding for Stadiums says it has enough signatures to force a ballot on city funding for a new downtown ballpark.

Spokesman Ed Rhode accuses backers of seeking to kill the project rather than empower voters.
