Hello, my DU friends. I have posted here on DU since 2004 and I need your help.
In March, you gave us a great boost in a similar on line post. I am editing my March post and asking for your help once again. The link is updated to July 31, 2014, but the issue remains the same.
Thanks
There is a very hot battle in the Greater Boston area between two potential casino sites. One is in Everett, Mass. and the other is in the adjoining City of Revere (my home town).
I represent the unionized work-force at the Suffolk Downs racetrack in Revere, which has partnered up with Mohegan Sun to build a resort casino in the Beach City of Revere. The result will be to save 800 jobs connected to the racetrack and create 4,000 more at the potential casino here. Our competition is Steve Wynn in Everett. That's the same Steve Wynn that spent millions trying to defeat President Obama in 2012 and has played footsies with the Chinese in Macao.

There is an on line poll between the two sites. I am asking you to vote for Revere in this poll in order to send a message to the Gaming Commission to save my job and the hundreds of unionized workers that I represent. In the mean time, you can stick it to a real Neanderthal, Steve Wynn, in the process.
Please vote for Mohegan Sun in Revere

Well, Steve, Obama's still here, so why are you competing against us? I thought this was not an environment to invest while Obama is President?

I'm a strong Warren, Labor supporter. I'm going to guess that Wynn won't be. If he thinks Obama is a Socialist, what do you think his opinion of Liz is?
Thanks for you help with this.
