Please go to http://openbudget.ny.gov/spendingForm.html and tell everyone what you think.
For example, sort on 2015-2016 Estimates "descending". You will see that the top value is 991 which means that the project with the highest estimate is $991,000 which is clearly not true because there are entries for $31 Billion. This is simply a bug in the sorting. Our NYS openbudget.ny.gov site is sorting based on alphabetic sorting. Yes 9 is after 3, but $31 Billion is greater than $991 K.
This is really a shame that our openbudget.ny.gov is so filled with bugs.

- Where are the details for all of the numbers?
- Where is the process for oversight and the application for the budget categories?
- Where is the transparency?
- Where is the referendum vote for each of these items?
