OHIO SOS (84% reporting)
ISSUE 3
Against: 35,585
For: 27,251
Such a shame...Mahoning county voting against issue 3. When it is time for the interested casino to come to Youngstown,
the potential casino developer will look at
how Youngstowners voted on Issue 3...then
it's bye, bye Y-town for casino development
if the yes votes end up in the losing column.
IT S A SHAME THAT THE MAHONING =TRUMBULL VALLEY VOTED DOWN ISSUE 3
HOPEFULLY; BUCKEYE BUCKS WILL COME THIS WAY ANYHOW. GOOD OR BAD, IT WAS NECESSARY TO KEEP OHIO $$$$$$$$$ IN OHIO.
The people that live here believe anything they see on TV as fact. It is time to wake up and smell the coffee and stop drinking the kool aid!
