It was one of four 2014 ballot measures put to public vote. Voting Question 3 on the ballot, "Expanding Prohibitions on Gaming". A YES VOTE would prohibit the Massachusetts Gaming Commission from issuing licenses for casinos and other gambling establishments (primarily those with table games and/or slot machines); this prohibition would void licenses previously issued. Wagering on live simulcast greyhound races would be illegal as well. A NO VOTE leaves current state gaming laws as is.https://www.proquest.com/docview/1619167156 2014 Massachusetts ballot questions: Your cheat sheet The Boston Globe Stephanie Vallejo R.9 November 2, 2014 March 10, 2018 limited pqarchiver.com ResponseVotes% No 1,271,404 58% Yes 845,880 39% blank 69,507 3% Source:https://www.sec.state.ma.us/ele/elebalm/balmresults.html#year2014 https://web.archive.org/web/20130120060603/http://www.sec.state.ma.us/ele/elebalm/balmresults.html#year2014 dead January 20, 2013 Statewide Ballot Questions — Statistics by Year: 2014 sec.state.ma.us March 10, 2018 References 30em Further reading https://www.proquest.com/docview/1619420627 Parsing the referendum questions The Boston Globe A.12 November 4, 2014 March 10, 2018 limited pqarchiver.com External links 2014 Ballot Questions at sec.state.ma.us Question 3 text via masslive.com Category:2014 Massachusetts ballot measures Category:Gambling ballot measures in the United States Category:Initiatives in the United States Category:Casinos in Massachusetts
