Maine voters reject new harness track

 Return Home
November 07, 2007 | Print View

Voters in Maine on Tuesday rejected an Indian Tribe bid to build a new harness racetrack and slots facility in the state located in Washington County. Although 70 percent of the voters in that county voted “yes,” the rest of the state was against the proposal, with the final tally being around a 52-48 percent majority.

Voters in Penobscot County were evenly divided in the voting, but the voters in the city of Bangor—home to Bangor Raceway which has slot machines—turned the proposal down 54-46 percent. York County voters were 55-percent “no,” while voters in Cumberland County were 54-percent “no.”
