You mean the Senate vote.

I decided that I could be a GREAT senator. Here's how I'd propose bills:

I AM AGAINST TERRORISTS.
I WANT THE COUNTRY TO BE SAFE FOR EVERYONE.
PEOPLE THAT THREATEN OUR SECURITY ARE BAD.
playing poker on the internet is bad

(1) I AGREE
(2) i disagree

The so called Govenor of Washington wanted to Ban on line gambling to stop the Indian Tribes. The Indians were making too much money and the State have hard time taxing. The state did manage to put a tax on smokes from the Indian Smoke Shops. In The fine print it is ok to gamble online for fun they want to stop the people trying to make a living on the gambling to make sure they get their taxes. The State of Washington has some of the highest taxes in the country and the taxes keep going up. Time to get out of this State.

Buck, the Nay votes were against the bill trying to ban online gambling. So those voting Nay were opposed to banning online gambling and tried to stop the bill from passing.
