:I wondered that too, except that the October 12 1966 Journal article definitely says voters rejected annexation 81 to 73. Where did you get the 78-33 victory? Were 48 'no' votes later declared invalid? <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''''[[User:Admin|admin]]''''' • '''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]''''' </span> 16:17, 25 October 2009 (CDT)
::The 73-38 result is recorded in Ordinance #50-66 of the City of Pensacola, which describes the Morris Court area annexed as a result of an October 11, 1966 referendum election. That's the only ordinance dealing with annexation in that timeframe, so votes being declared invalid is a possibility... If you aren't familiar with the City's online records system, I can show you how to access the ordinance in question. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]''' </span> 16:41, 25 October 2009 (CDT)
==Article title==
Would you object to moving the article to [[Annexations by the City of Pensacola]]? I think the present title could be confusing due its use of the word "of" rather than "by." <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]''' </span> 16:20, 26 October 2009 (CDT)
:Sure thing. Or maybe just [[City of Pensacola annexations]]? I was using [[Wikipedia:Annexations of Edmonton]] as a naming guide, as it was the only article I found that seemed comparable, but I agree it's not ideal. <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''''[[User:Admin|admin]]''''' • '''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]''''' </span> 17:04, 26 October 2009 (CDT)
