Casino Question Looks Like It's Been Rejected

Carroll Andrew Morse

Governor Almond is talking on WJAR-TV like he's confident the casino amendment has been defeated. WPRI-TV is running a headline saying "Casino Bill rejected".

UPDATE:

WJAR-TV just called the casino amendment as defeated.

Good. We "let the people decide" and they said no. BIG. Now, Chief. SCREW!

Amen to that! That was as decisive and bipartisan vote as they get. Good for us!

How many times in her life has the chic, glam Jan Jones heard the word "no?" Not too often, I'm betting.

The defeat of the casino, in the face of a big big money campaign, kills the argument posed by the opponents of Voter Initiative. The casino defeat can bring a VI victory.
