Chargers say election on new stadium “not possible”

The city of San Diego said recently that they believed it was possible to hold a citywide vote on a new stadium for the Chargers before December 15, which would come just before the window opens for teams to apply to relocate to a new city.

The Chargers didn’t make any public comment about the possibility of a vote at the time, but PFT reported that the team thought getting a measure on the ballot before a September deadline would be impossible because of environmental laws and that any attempt to circumvent an environmental impact study would result in lengthy litigation.
