Heard the extra session cost the state $365K for these jackwagons to deny their constituents the right to vote on it one way or another. Asshat politicians get busy putting self serving language in it and it fails to make it to a ballot- Alabama Politics at it's best.

Looks like my State Senator voted no after I asked him to support the lottery. Looks like my State Senator gets my no vote next time he runs. Which would be who?

What all was attached to it besides the lottery?

The whole damn lot of them should be drawn and quartered.
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

Two reasons come to mind: 1. Scared to take a stand Or 2. They have a conflict of interest, such as owning a business that could be involved with the lottery in some way or some other type of conflict where abstaining is the proper course of action.

I'll bet #1 , I didn't think conflict of interest was possible in Alabama.

Legal weed would be better for the state than a lottery.

Medical weed through doctors' prescriptions for things like pain relief from cancer most likely wouldn't affect the labor force. It's not like Timmy and Susie could saunter into a shop and buy weed for funsies unless the state opened sales to the general public. Given that they fought Sunday booze sales and craft/draft/tap beer for so long partly because of the evil brew, I doubt they'd just open weed sales to everyone.
Cultivation of medical-grade weed, packaging, running dispensaries ... approving medical weed probably would create more jobs than a lottery where ticket machines and scratchies are installed in stores already owned and managed by someone else. The biggest jobs likely to be created with a lottery would be with the supervisory commission board - high dollar, going to friends and buddies, and not much else.

I find it hilarious that most of you don't trust the dcnr to manage gamecheck, but want them to implement a lottery. How short sighted do you have to be, to believe the state will manage a big increase in revenue well???? Ding, Ding, Ding!!!! We have a winner. A lot of us are old enough to remember the same crap spewing out of the mouths of the scum that ran this state years ago as it pertained to legal liquor sales. It was the magic bean then that was going to save our state and our education system. "If they don't buy it here, they'll buy it somewhere else." I'm all for letting the people vote, but if you think it's the long term fix for this state, history is not on your side. All it does is kick the proverbial can down the road. Einstein's definition of insanity was to do the same thing over and over and expect different results. Expecting this to solve our funding woes in insane. The only thing that has changed is the names and faces of the scum.

How short sighted do you have to be, to believe the state will manage a big increase in revenue well???? Hammer meet nail... if they can't manage the funds they have now, they'll mismanage any new funds they receive in the future. The problem has already been stated earlier in the thread... it's greed among those who run our state.
