A casino proposed by three Ojibwe tribes in Wisconsin brought more opponents than supporters to a public hearing in Hudson on Tuesday evening.

Of 83 residents who spoke, about 26 supported it and 57 opposed, according to the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

The city will submit a report to the Department of Interior regarding the casino. The public's comments will be included as an addendum.
