Failed with about 58% NO: Voters Reject Stadium Tax for Royals and Chiefs, Leaving Future in KC in Question (usnews.com).
The original measure in 2006 passed with 53% of the vote: https://www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Daily/Issues/2006/04/05/Facilities-Venues/Rock-The-Vote-KC-Facility-Upgrades-Approved-But-No-Roof.aspx
I suspect younger voters are less likely to approve of measures like this, but there might also be some positive sentiment toward the Chiefs after they won the Super Bowl.
