[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 379924, member: 1246"] [COLOR=red]Here's the story.....[/COLOR] [SIZE=4][B]AP[/B][/SIZE] Casino backers in Ohio pitch job creation Tuesday August 5, 3:22 pm ET By Stephen Majors, Associated Press Writer Casino backers say promise of new jobs will help Ohio region bracing for tough times COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Backers of a proposed casino near Wilmington say casino jobs would be a safety net for a southwest Ohio region bracing for possible economic trouble. Rick Lertzman of MyOhioNow.com said Tuesday that the 5,000 jobs his casino would bring would help offset the loss of jobs at the nearby Wilmington Air Park. Express shipper DHL said in May it wants to move work away from Wilmington by having United Parcel Service replace ABX Air and ASTAR Air Cargo in transporting packages, threatening 6,000 jobs. Officials in Clinton County say the DHL decision has likely increased support for the casino. But casino opponents say the $600 million project couldn't provide the same quality jobs. Casino backers turned in about 800,000 petition signatures Tuesday. If the signatures are validated by the Secretary of State's office, the casino plan would appear on the November ballot. [/QUOTE]
