Democratic presidential candidates are hardly taking the Nevada caucuses for granted. Sen. Kamala Harris (D) has already been once to Las Vegas (in vain) as has Joe Biden. The latter probably endeared himself to
Culinary Union members by having a contretemps with Station Casinos. Biden will be playing a return engagement with the Culinary on Dec. 11. Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D) and Bernie Sanders (I) will also be dancing attendance upon the union, with Warren scheduled for Dec. 9 and Sanders the following day. Mayor Pete Buttigieg (D) appears to be giving the Silver State a pass, perhaps because he is only polling in single digits there. Will the Culinary join Jim Murren in endorsing Biden? We can only Continue reading
Virginny will have to put its hopes on that traditional cash cow, Richmond. A study conducted in part by The Innovation Group projects 
about a lack of action on the 2018 Broken Promises report. The latter chronicles failed financial commitments that stretch across the George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Donald Trump administrations. In addition to heading the NCAI, Sharp is also president of the Quinault Indian Nation. Broken Promises is a 2018 follow-up to “A Quiet Crisis: Federal Funding and Unmet Needs in Indian Country,” a 2003 report by the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. It determined that funding for Native American populations was “disproportionately lower than funding for services to other populations.”
higher—exclusivity fees. To his credit, Stitt has put sports betting on the table as an incentive. Small implies that 6%, which Sooner State tribes pay, is far too little and that Connecticut‘s 25% (which only applies to slots) would be fairer. He also cites Florida, but that state isn’t getting any gaming-tax revenue from the Seminole Tribe at present, so I don’t know if that particular dog will hunt. For their part, the tribes say they’re still waiting for a concrete proposal from Stitt, who has been exquisitely vague about what he wants from them. “What is that written proposal? What do they have to offer of interest?” asked Choctaw Chief Gary Batton, who likened Stitt to a used-car salesman, the unkindest cut possible.
$150 million a year less in revenue from Chicago. That’s about 15% of the entire capital plan.” Oh, Laura mercy, as Pogo would say. Somebody should ask Syverson what he plans to do when no casino is built and there’s exactly $0 going into the capital plan. Somebody must have asked Syverson if this was sour grapes, since he represents Rockford, soon to be home of a Hard Rock-branded casino. Seemingly high on happy dust, he replied, “Chicago’s casino is going to be the most successful and the biggest, and it’s going to generate the most revenue. The idea of giving them a much better deal than Rockford gets, it just isn’t fair, one, and then second, it’s going to hurt the state’s revenue.”
period, Jacksonville police have logged 500 emergency calls to slot arcades. One such robbery, at Jacksonville’s Lucky Charms arcade, led to a hostage situation, a car chase, a crash, an injured police officer and one fatality. The alleged robber is charged with myriad counts, including the demise of the hostage, which carries the death penalty. Since gaming regulation in Florida is virtually nonexistent, law enforcement is looking toward public-nuisance laws as a weapon against slot houses, a potential tool for shutting them down.

wrong,” adding that self-parking is now free. “We thought we could charge for some of the transportation, like boats and premium buses. We were wrong.” Why Wynn would erect disincentives to attendance, particularly in a largely blue-collar market, passes understanding. As Gullbrants put it with 20/20 hindsight, “The last thing we want to do is be a Vegas casino in Boston. We want to be a Boston casino in Boston.” Don’t blame Gullbrants. The bad decisions can probably be laid at the feet of predecessor Robert DeSalvio.
pushed back all the way into summer of 2021, a half-year delay. Sometimes one thinks it will be a miracle if this place ever opens. The delay is intended to help accommodate “a 5,000-seat state-of-the-art theater; a 75,000-square-foot nightlight and daylife concept; a 50-foot diameter video globe; and additional luxury suites, villas and penthouses with individual lobbies, open balconies and a sky casino.” That’s in addition to
