Ind. Gov't. - Local government revamp on the ropes [Update - or maybe not]

From the Evansville Courier & Press, an AP developing story:

An Indiana House committee has dealt a serious blow to local government reorganization efforts in Indiana.

The Democrat-controlled Government and Regulatory Reform committee voted Tuesday to fold several local government provisions proposed by Gov. Mitch Daniels into a single bill.

The panel then voted to reject the bill, with one Republican joining six Democrats in voting against the bill. Several Republicans then walked out in protest.
