TALKING AGAINST SLOTS ON CASINO NIGHT

The Miami Herald reports that State Representative Randy Johnson (R - Celebration, a staunch anti-gambling advocate, will be the featured speaker against the ballot inititative on slot machines at jai-alai frontons and racetracks in Dade and Broward counties on March 8.

The event: The Casino Night fundraiser for the Broward County Women's Republican Club Federated to be held in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea.

Gambling is not a partisan issue. There are Republicans and Democrats on both sides of the issue for a variety of reasons. I just thought it interesting that he would be speaking against additional gambling in this scenario.
