West Virginia Justices Hear Video Poker Lottery Challenge
Lawyer Tom Goodwin argues the 2001 law creates a properly regulated state lottery system replacing unregulated machines. Antigambling spokesman Harless calls video poker non lottery gambling and urges voter decision, while Grant proponents cite $57 million in grants for projects like baseball stadiums, Pullman Square, and a Cabela's site as proof of program benefits. Justices question whether skill or chance defines lottery and reference prior May rulings on grants and standards.
