I don’t know about the college gambling issue. I know that folks in Pope County don’t want a Casino in their area. The crime and corruption from the casino isn’t worth the supposed money for education etc in any area.
I agree, I did not vote for that amendment. I don’t see gambling as a savior for anything. What I am curious about is this Senator Johnson who introduced this Bill declaring and Emergency and wants to force Jefferson and Pope counties to have a separate local election to decide and let Garland and Crittenden counties off with a pass.
I may not like it but the terms are the terms, how can they decide to change the rules. The Saracen Indian Tribe is already building their place in Pine Bluff.
