130,000 signatures for higher casino bet limits

July 28, 2008

A petition to raise the bet limit from $5 to $100 has be signed by 130,000 voters and filed with the Colorado secretary of state. The number of signatures is nearly double the 76,000 needed to qualify for the November ballot. The secretary’s office must now validate the signatures.

"Coloradans have been really consistent in turning down proposals to expand gaming beyond the three mountain communities," said Katy Atkinson, a political consultant. "But what they'd be doing is pretty much giving local voters permission to change the bet limits."

The ballot initiative would also allow Black Hawk, Central City and Cripple Creek to expand casino hours and add craps and roulette in their local casinos.
