2. Editorial: Gov. Riley’s conspicuous absence
Dothan Eagle editorial
....Riley has gone to great length in his attempts to derail the project
because he stubbornly maintains electronic bingo games like the
ones operating at Country Crossing are illegal slot machines.
He sent a task force to shut down electronic bingo operations in White
Hall, then mischaracterized a court ruling on specific minutiae of one
county’s regulations as a broad precedent declaring electronic bingo
machines illegal statewide. He rails against electronic bingo, but
curiously never mentions Victoryland, where thousands of electronic
bingo machines are operated by Milton McGregor.
Legal wrangling over electronic bingo will surely continue, likely for
years. Meanwhile, Houston County officials and Country Crossing
management have ensured the facility’s bingo operation complies with
state law and a recent state Supreme Court ruling.
The absence of the governor, with state police in tow, goes a long
way toward validating that position.
