No Slots in KY at racetracks
The slots bill is dead - again.
I don't understand people who would rather choose to be broke, with no money for schools, programs, etc., than allow gambling. Bible belt.

I'm sure they'll try again. It does make you wonder.

Hold on a minute. This wasn't a 'slots bill' per se. It was the David Williams-generated constitutional amendment referendum approach.

It was actually a "trick" bill in that Williams wanted a constitutional ammendment to ask for a vote of the people. The "trick" with this deal is that I believe it takes 2/3 majority to get an ammendment to the constitution which of course we all know would never pass. He is a trickster.
