A recent survey shows that South Carolina residents overwhelmingly support the establishment of a casino in the state. The survey revealed that 63% of likely general election voters and 58% of GOP primary voters are in favor of allowing a casino to be built. Surprisingly, even a majority of regular church-goers support the idea.
Plans are underway to build a state-of-the-art casino resort in Santee, SC, aiming to attract out-of-state travelers and boost the local economy. The proposed resort includes a casino, a luxury hotel, and convention center, with the goal of creating thousands of jobs and driving tourism.
The project, led by businessman Wallace Cheves, aims to revitalize the rural region of Santee and Lake Marion. If successful, the resort could potentially have an $8 billion impact on the state’s economy within the first 10 years. Cheves is adamant about not using taxpayer dollars for the project.
The survey results, conducted by BK Strategies, also highlighted the potential economic benefits of the project, further increasing support for the development of the casino resort. This aligns with the editorial stance of FITSNews, which has long supported private sector casino developments in the state.
Overall, the survey reflects strong public support for the establishment of a casino in South Carolina, with potential economic benefits and job opportunities driving the enthusiasm for the project.
