Gambling in Georgia: What It Will Bring
Posted on Dec 18, 2019 5:21pm PST
On December 11, 2019, members of the Georgia Legislature met to discuss
a hot topic: Gambling. No, they weren’t shooting dice in the corner
of the room (at least, I hope not!). They were discussing the pros and
cons about whether to legalize it in Georgia.
A particular legislator said he wanted to bring a $200 million dollar resort
and casino to Columbus, Georgia. The resort would include sports betting
and horse racing, among other things. There are discussions to bring a
bill to pass and legalize gambling in 2020. Some Legislators believe legal
gambling can bring in a billion dollars to Georgia.
What will your vote be?
