Hancock County Voters Want Slot Machines

With Hancock County’s special Election Day less than a week away, more than 1,000 voters have already taken part in early voting – and many are coming out saying that they want table games to come keep the slot machines company. They say that the slot machines did a lot of good for their county, and that table games will bring in even more business and jobs than the slot machines did.

There are groups like the VFW who want casino games – they say that it will “energize” Chester, and that they need them. They say that by bringing more people to the town, it will also give them an opportunity to see Chester for what it is. Chester is home of one of the finest veterans’ memorials around, as well as the World’s Largest Tea Pot – and you can’t beat that.

However, others like the idea of table games as long as it doesn’t change things too much. They like the idea of the revenue and the jobs that could come from it, but they don’t like the idea of increasing traffic. Increased traffic is a concern felt by many as they say that the amount of traffic on Route 2 – which goes right through the city – is already too much.

Some voters say that they want the table games if only for the reason that they don’t want the other counties to have something they don’t. They say that they don’t really want table games, but if it means that Wheeling Island Racetrack would be bringing in millions of dollars in revenue and they wouldn’t, then they want them too.
