Proposition One

I normally don't vote on election day unless it's a governor or a president race. I don't pay enough attention to local politics to have an opinion. I voted today for one reason and one reason only. Although I cast my vote for that one reason, I also voted for other stuff just because I was there. I voted yes for proposition one. If enough people vote yes for this, there will be a casino in the area. It's a law allowing I think seven casinos to be built in NYS. I know it will take a number of years to create this casino if the law passes. Who knows if I'll be in the area by the time it's built? I don't care. I can see myself being a lifer in the area I'm in now. That doesn't mean I will be though. The closest casino to me right now is an hour and 40 minutes. I'd absolutely love for a casino to be twenty minutes from me. My wallet wouldn't appreciate it though. It'd be cool to be a regular at the casino. My mom would hate it because she despises gambling (even though she plays the slots when she goes on cruises, which she is only going on her 11th one in January). That's why she voted no. One of our poker players also voted no. He doesn't want more people to be in debt. Oh well. We will see how everyone else voted tomorrow.
