DAVID WILLIAMS’ GAMBLING REFERENDUM DIES IN SENATE
Kentucky State Senate President David Williams’ referendum calling for a constitutional amendment on expansion of gambling failed in a party line vote yesterday. While it received a majority (21 - 16 with one Democrat absent), it takes 23 votes for any legislation to pass the Senate.
Senator Kathy Stein called out Williams by pointing out his hypocricy on the issue. This is a referendum and noted that the Senate President had previously stated Kentucky isn’t a ‘referendum state’.

Guess Kentucky is walking in NY and MD footsteps…keep it up boys and girls at the state house. The showcase industry of KY is in it’s death rattle….couldn’t happen to a better state. The grand commonwealth is in the bottom five states regarding animal welfare. Glad to see they are preserving consistency.
Other and adjoining states will scoop up the disgruntled….capitalism at it’s finest.
