Slots...I have a feeling that it will pass. I like the idea of legalized gambling if done right, but am voting against this referendum because of the way it is written. The wording is misleading as to where the money raised will go. The fact that this is calling for an amendment to the state constitution is crazy, and good luck changing it once it's in place. Also, if you look around at the other states with slots or table games, their residents benefit from lower taxes. Ours will be raised.
