Help me send Steve Wynn a message in Massachusetts---DU this Poll

 Hello, my DU friends. I have posted here on DU since 2004 how is this germane to the message? and I need your help.
 
There is a very hot battle in the Greater Boston area between two potential casino sites. One is in Everett, Mass. and the other is in the adjoining City of Revere (my home town).
 
I represent the unionized work-force at the Suffolk Downs racetrack in Revere, which has partnered up with Mohegan Sun to build a resort casino in the Beach City of Revere. The result will be to save 800 jobs connected to the racetrack and create 4,000 more at the potential casino here. Our competition is Steve Wynn in Everett. That's the same Steve Wynn that spent millions trying to defeat President Obama in 2012 and has played footsies with the Chinese in Macao.
 
There is an on line poll between the two sites. I am asking you to vote for Revere in this poll in order to send a message to the Gaming Commission to save my job and the hundreds of unionized workers that I represent. In the mean time, you can stick it to a real Neanderthal, Steve Wynn, in the process.
 
Please vote "YES" for Revere

unDUing requests for polls was my introduction to DU.  I did it for weeks before registering with them.  Found DU while reading Boortz on line.

Currently, it's Revere 51% to 43% for Everett, with 6% 'not sure.'

Wouldn't the workers in Everett also be unionized?

I wonder how they feel about outsiders being called on to screw them out of a job?

Revere is already a shithole--they don't need to make it worse with a casino.

My guess is no.

Revere. 51%
Everett. 43%
None of the above. 6%
