The New Hampshire Senate this week is considering a casino gaming bill. The bill, authored by Senator Lou D’Allesandro, would authorize one casino.
It is similar to a bill last year, except that one called for two casinos. It passed but was rejected by the House.
Incumbent Governor Maggie Hassan has supported a casino all during her term, but the candidates trying to replace her this November are not so positive.
The bill originally called for a casino at Rockingham Park in Salem, but was amended to make the location subject to a bidding process.
The Senate has passed several similar bills over the last decade only to see all of them killed in the House.
