Arkansas Wins in 2016 is advocating for the passage of Issue 5, an amendment to the AR Constitution that would authorize casino gaming in 3 locations.

@rickm19622005 Oaklawn and Southland are actually owned by "outsiders" from St. Louis, MO and Buffalo, NY.

We released an economic study this week on Issue 5. Here are the highlights. You can read more at https://t.co/9CU0h3UnDi

You've probably heard a lot from opponents of Issue 5 recently, but not the truth. Here's why Issue 5 is good for Arkansas.

[ArkansasWins2016 @ARWinsIn2016]

The front group for Oaklawn and Southland is attacking Issue 5 over "online sports betting". Wonder what they think this is?

STUDY: ISSUE 5 WOULD CREATE 6,632 DIRECT
OPERATIONAL & CONSTRUCTION JOBS, $122 MILLION IN ANNUAL
GAMING TAX REVENUE https://t.co/9CU0h4bZ1S

Issue 5 is about bringing tourism, tax dollars, & jobs back to AR from surrounding states. When we bring tourism home, Arkansas wins! #arpx

@sylviacbrown all of our ads are posted on our Facebook and Twitter pages. We are airing ads statewide, including in SW Arkansas.

[ArkansasWins2016 @ARWinsIn2016]

@sylviacbrown hi Sylvia. We have several ads airing that include people of color.

Via the @ArkTimes - Anti-Casino group violates @UArkansas trademark, forced to take down ad https://t.co/fGgkfDTG7c

[ArkansasWins2016 @ARWinsIn2016]

@JohnnyMcCain1 Issue 5 would authorize casinos in Boone, Washington, & Miller counties.

[ArkansasWins2016 @ARWinsIn2016]

The Oaklawn-Southland gaming cartel will do anything to protect their profits & stop competition. Don't be a pawn in their game. #Issue5

[ArkansasWins2016 @ARWinsIn2016]

The gaming cartel has monopolized our options for too long. Voting for Issue 5 will change that & bring jobs & tax revenue back to Arkansas.

[ArkansasWins2016 @ARWinsIn2016]

@JhonSimth @Thumb_Talker Oaklawn has constitutional protection (Amendment 46). Both have protection in the law as only gaming providers

[ArkansasWins2016 @ARWinsIn2016]

The Oaklawn/Southland front group has had plenty to say about Issue 5 recently. We helped them clear a few things up....#Issue5 #arpx

[Public Policy Center @UAEX_PPC]

Looks like mailbox campaigning has begun for Arkansas ballot issues #ARballot https://t.co/U7kCdWIoAd

[ArkansasWins2016 @ARWinsIn2016]

@UAEX_PPC we're working on an economic impact study. But this is a reasonable & conservative estimate based on existing gaming revenue paid

[ArkansasWins2016 @ARWinsIn2016]

@SharpTusk @HelmJustin because federal law prohibits it at this time.

[ArkansasWins2016 @ARWinsIn2016]

@SharpTusk @HelmJustin passage of the amendment by itself would not legalize sports betting.
