What a Fair Slots Ballot Question Looks Like

This is what a biased slots ballot question looks like:

Authorizes the State to issue up to five video lottery licenses for the purpose of raising revenue for education of children in public schools, pre-kindergarten through grade 12, public school construction and improvements, and construction of capital projects at community colleges and higher education institutions. No more than a total number of 15,000 video lottery terminals may be authorized in the State, and only one license may be issued for each specified location in Anne Arundel, Cecil, Worcester, and Allegany Counties, and Baltimore City. Any additional forms or expansion of commercial gaming in Maryland is prohibited, unless approved by a voter referendum.

This is a much more balanced slots ballot question:

"Authorizes the State to issue up to 5 video lottery operation licenses at specified locations in Allegany County, Anne Arundel County, Baltimore City, Cecil County, and Worcester County. This constitutional amendment provides that only one license may be issued in each specified location, limits the total number of video lottery terminals to 15,000, specifies that the proceeds of the video lottery operations be used for public education, the horse racing industry, and lottery operations, with the remainder going to the licensees (operators). The amendment prohibits the expansion of commercial gaming unless approved by referendum of the voters."

Any questions?
