K. Blanco Calls Charity Games An Expansion of Gambling
Louisiana State governor Kathleen Blanco is rejecting the idea of allowing eBingo games to be used by charitable organizations as a way of fundraising because her administration believes that would be an expansion of gambling. Blanco administration spokespeople replied to our inquiry about the delay in approving the Bingo games for charitable organizations, "We are being careful in our decision to allow the machines to be used. We want to make sure they are regulated properly before going into production." These new eBingo machines feature modern, attractive graphics that are more fun to play, and more accurate. The devices are very profitable for the few charities allowed to use them so far. So far, Governor Kathleen Blanco has opposed the new machines as an expansion of gambling in her state and her team is patiently delaying a final decision on the matter. Some lobbyists have accused Blanco of stalling. According to her administration, "testing each machine's computer chip to ensure it functions correctly, takes alot of time."
