Michigan Governor Vetoes Online gambling Bill Days Before Leaving Office.

douche mid-western governor. They'll pass it again it'll just take bureaucracy.

Even when passed again it will take a year or two to implement it. Look at PA. Still working out the kinks.

This is just disappointing, and a sorry move from an exiting politician. I am not a Michigan resident but my family is from there. I was excited to see that the state legislature had passed the law.

I'm all for regulation, but I think any government official who thinks they can tell you how to spend your money needs to be voted out. It's poker for crying out loud. That's just my opinion, of course. Hopefully, Michigan will be back in business soon with another vote.

Not familiar with this EX-gov as a person. Color his pic orange & he really looks familiar. He has peed in our “pool”. New bill under a young new gov could be the ticket. Wait & see. Hope the EX-gov made a large illegal bet on the wolverines.

We will have to wait and see if anything does change with the new government coming in. Most of us could have predicted this outcome (as it appeared Snyder was making like his veto mattered as his last act as governor) but only a matter of time before it will be passed - hopefully sooner rather than later.

We all hear you. I agree 100%. Way too much political interference with normal citizen rights. I don't think the world lasts long enough to get them back. Our lives are blackened & smothered by corruption, greed, pollution, natural disasters & hate.

No reason to exclude online poker players from that party. Hope & pray & watch.

Full wolf red moon this month. Welcome to 2019. One foot in front of the other. Yesterday is gone, tomorrow is not here, so we only have right now.

God bless & keep us.

Does anyone know how long it will take for it to get reintroduced? I know that there are certain sessions and rules for introducing a bill, but I'm not sure about MI's cycle.

The state Legislature can override the governor’s veto, but has only done so some 5 times in the last 66 years.

There’s obviously some hidden agenda when a lame duck politician goes against the will of the people and a bipartisan effort of the legislature.

Yeah, but what could it be? I haven't heard much about a plan of action to get this restarted.
