Vote sought on off-reservation casino in Ohio

Tuesday, March 22, 2005  

Opponents of an off-reservation casino in Ohio want the issue placed on the November ballot.

The Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma entered into an agreement with the city of Monroe for a casino near a major interstate. The tribe is promising to share revenues and pay for city services.

But opponents say the deal should go through voters. They filed a petition to seek a referendum.
