The date November 3 was earmarked as the completion of the issue of expanded gambling in all over the State of Ohio. It was the voters who have made their opinion clear on this issue. In a clear verdict, four new casinos are planned to be constructed within the state. This was a decision that ended the 24 year old Ohio’s opposition to gambling.

The voters turn out was around 53 percent which showed that majority of people were in favor of the Issue 3. All the rights to operate the Vegas styled casinos are vested on the Penn National Gambling. Two places selected as the venue of these casinos are Toledo and Cincinnati.
In another decision, Dan Gilbert who is the owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers has been vested the responsibility to construct casinos in Columbus and Cleveland. In a given time frame of 2 years or so, the 4 casinos are expected to be completed.
Plans to include more than 20,000 slot games are expected to be introduced. It is also expected that the tax revenues will yield millions within the very first year. Reports say that 33 percent of revenue will get collected in the form of taxes and close to 40,000 jobs are also expected to be introduced.
The Penn National Gaming has step forward with an increased price per share and their plans for the casino gaming are also underway. New casinos will be including most common games like roulette, blackjack, slots, keno, poker and more usually found in their neighboring states.
It is thought that new casinos being brought to the state Ohio, it will be giving tough competition for all the brick and mortar casinos already operating in the United States. In an estimation, Indiana is expected to lose millions of gambling revenues that came from the Ohioans. Moreover, with the jobless rate crossing 10%, Ohioans still believe that the new casino jobs will be a great way to improve their future.
