Interesting. The NY Senate was going to give its decision-making authority to a senator who was for the project, but didn't when it switched. When they were deciding who to appoint instead, Amazon called and asked if the appointee would be in favor of Amazon. The Senate wouldn't commit to that, and so Amazon took its ball and left.

Pretty aggressive move, but sounds like Amazon. It's a probably a good thing Detroit didn't get a piece of HQ. Detroit/Michigan would acquiesce to everything Amazon asked for.
