Quite a booklet touting their proposal as the biggest, most jobs, most revenue etc. Real postage stamps, not metered. I wonder if they sent those to everyone or if they have some sort of mailing list - and if so what is the list from? They are definitelymaking a big push at the state level - oretty much against the Sumner County Commission. Since I don't really have a dog in this fight I find it rather interesting to watch this play out. As a prediction I think Harrah's will win. It is a state decision and they will look at the bottom line rather than the specific Sumner county position. Your guesses?
