Here’s the latest chapter in American Gaming Association President Geoff Freeman‘s charm offensive: an election-season ad push targeting a few key markets. One can certainly understand why these spots are running in Boston, even Dover (where the horseracing industry wants subsidies) or in Indianapolis (where casinos are pushing to move ashore). But why Freeman is buying ad time in Las Vegas boggles the mind. There’s nothing relevant on the ballot and gambling is so fully accepted into the social fabric that he’s just preaching to the converted. It seems a waste of money that could be better spent in other jurisdictions.
