This wasn't a vote for slots at tracks, this was for full blown casinos in , i think, 5 big cities.
Horses are not in play.

While I may be a current resident I will not be by end of the year, therefore I did not vote. Why vote when I will not be a resident in 2010?

This is funny, Ohio Horsemen will get little to nothing out of this Casino deal and who really wants to keep misery running (read the link on drf)? Its funny, I have not been to Beulah since it opened last month, don't care. I got a few pals, whatever but I don't care to be surounded by misery, and that is what Beulah Park is. Miserable Horses, Trainers, Owners, Gamblers, etc etc etc..

I'm movin to sunny Florida, away from miserable Grove City and Columbus, Ohio.

I predict by the time that casino opens by where the Blue Jackets play in 2012 Beulah will be long gone. Lets hope that they don't prolong the misery.

Please, move all parties involved to better places in the Ohio Horse Racing Industry - other states.
