Pro Slots Groups Get More DonationsIt will come as simply a shock to you to find out that those with slot machine and gambling interests put more money into the pro-slot machine campaign then they did in the other. A new report out shows that those groups that were in support of slot machines donated money to the cause, and somehow they expect us to be shocked by that. They also report that those that groups that were getting the word out there spent more money promoting slot machines than those that were against them, perhaps because they had more money to spend? The report states that the groups that support slot machines outspent their opponents by more than 7-1. They raised about $7 million whereas the anti slot machine group leader raised just under $1 million, coming in at $934,000. With much more cash to spend on convincing Marylanders that legalizing slot machines was a good idea, those that were opposed to them never really stood a chance. The pro slot machine group Maryland for Our Future raised the majority of the money, with the owner of Rosecroft Raceway, Cloverleaf Enterprises, Inc. and Unite Here bringing in about $41,000 and $27,000 respectively. The groups were spending their money trying to convince Marylander that they wanted slot machines, and with one group having substantially more capital than the other, it wasn’t really a fair fight. However, the battle as to whether or not slot machines would be legalized in Maryland is now over, one way or the other.
