Finally Ohio catches up to the rest of the states. This will help out the economy in Ohio so much more than anyone realizes. TruthPac tried to spread lies about Issue 3 while being funded by casino's from neighboring states. Congrats Gilbert and Go CAVS!!!

No way a casino will be built in Toledo, way too close to Detroit...only Cleveland, Columbus and Cincy will have casinos but I'm very happy with the victory!!:)

They forgot to mention the increase in crime, prostitution, corruption and drugs that will come right along with these casinos. Putting 4 casinos in 4 cities that have it bad as it is with crime just got an increase coming soon in the near future. Not to mention the more work for law enforcement.

What jobs will be created for Ohioians? House Keeping, Cooks, and Valet parkers? How many casino dealers, professional dealers do you know in Ohio? Sounds like they need out of state employees for that one. No way will they train new dealers from Ohio. Its not in the "cards."

Apparently you don't read your daily papers. there is plenty of crime, prostitution,corruption and drugs without the casinos. The way i see it is the profits from the casinos can be used to hire more police and fire fighters and make this a safer city.
We just had headlines of a man killing at least ten people and there were no casinos. nuff said

Daily Horoscope for December 26

Virgo

Mercury is turning retrograde at just the right time, because it's telling you to consider the validity of your long-term aims and aspirations. If they stand about as much chance of seeing the light of day as you do of winning the Lottery, then you need to streamline them or even abandon them and start again. So think about what you want from life and how you're going to get it. Children and romance may be quite erratic during this phase.
