Contact Jim Rubens 603-359-3300

The most contentious part of Saturday's debate among delegates at the NH GOP convention was an amendment proposed by Rep. Ken Weyler and others which would have removed the state GOP's existing and long-standing anti slot casino provision. The proposal was voted down by voice vote by a margin of about 2 to 1.

 

Jim Rubens and others spoke against removing the anti-casino plank.
