21 Key Findings Sound Transit s favorable rating is at its highest point. Support for expansion of Sound Transit s system is widespread (85%) is as strong and in fact a little more intense than it was before Sound Transit 2. More than three-quarters (75%) support the Legislature giving Sound Transit more taxing authority. This includes a majority who have an unfavorable opinion of the legislature. Among the kinds of transit that could be added, additional capacity in the form of rail is seen as the most urgent. Sound Transit Systemwide 21
