The people have spoken. Boy, have they.
An online poll conducted by the Forest Grove Leader asked readers if they had issues with the Dream Girl Espresso stand that opened recently at the intersection of 19th Avenue and Elm Street? A majority say yes.
As of 9 a.m. today, 666 individuals had responded to the poll.* Here’s what they said:
Nearly three out of five respondents — 57.35 percent (382 votes) — said either a bikini barista stand isn’t a good fit for the community or it’s not the best location for a coffee stand.
By comparison, about 35 percent (233 votes) of respondents said either they can’t wait to see the baristas at work or they won’t go there, but acknowledge it’s free enterprise.
A combined 7.65 percent (51 votes) of respondents chose “other” or no opinion.
