Feud over? Rahm seeks ‘common ground’ with Quinn on gambling
Fran Spielman, Naperville Sun - After months of political feuding with Gov. Pat Quinn over casino
gambling, Mayor Rahm Emanuel on Tuesday changed his tune, saying he hoped to find "common
ground" that would pave the way for a Chicago casino and a bonanza of local revenues. One day after
Quinn drew the line at five new casinos and ruled out slot machines at racetracks, O'Hare and Midway
Airports and the Illinois State Fairgrounds, Emanuel said he had a "good conversation" with the
governor and came away encouraged. He said a revised gambling bill could be introduced by Friday.
"I've never said, 'My way or the highway.' That's not how I do my things," Emanuel told reporters.

Quinn says he's sticking to principles on gambling
Rick Pearson and Monique Garcia, Chicago Tribune - Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn sought Tuesday to stake
out "fundamental principles" on gambling that threaten to derail a future Chicago casino, but casino
supporters are betting on him once again changing his stance on the controversial issue. "If the
Legislature cannot abide by those fundamental principles, then we shouldn't have a bill in the first
place," the governor said. Without slots at the tracks, Quinn's own expansion proposal would fail in the
Legislature, gambling advocates said. Suburban lawmakers with tracks in their districts would oppose
it, as would those outside the Chicago area who would gain nothing for downstate horse-breeding and
other agricultural industries.

Quinn wants new bill that limits gambling opportunities
Ray Long and Monique Garcia, Chicago Tribune - Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn on Monday morning called for
an overhaul of the widespread gambling expansion pending in the General Assembly, saying it needs to
be scaled back. The governor indicated he's OK with the five new casinos in Chicago, southern Cook
County, Rockford, Danville and Lake County. But Quinn said he would not allow gambling at racetracks,
the state fairgrounds, or at Midway or O'Hare International Airports, as the current legislation proposes.
The governor also wants to ban campaign contributions from gambling license holders and managers,
and to beef up oversight of a Chicago casino with the Illinois Gaming Board. He is calling for changing
the tax structure that increases breaks, saying it short-changes education.

Joliet sees decline in citywide casino revenues
Bob Okon, Joliet Herald-News - The Rivers Casino in Des Plaines in its second full month of business
continued to far outpace casinos in Joliet and elsewhere. The addition of Rivers Casino has meant
more gaming tax dollars statewide but less in Joliet because of a drop-off in total gaming revenue from
the city's two casinos.Hollywood Casino Joliet in September actually posted a 6 percent gain from the
same month a year ago with $10.3 million in revenue. Citywide, however, the gains at Hollywood were
offset by a 14.4 percent decline in revenue at Harrah's, which generated $16.7 million.

Senate president open to cutting gambling positions to pass casino legislation
Monique Garcia, Chicago Tribune - Illinois Senate President John Cullerton said Monday that he's open
to reducing the number of gaming positions in a pending casino measure to try to address Gov. Pat
Quinn's concerns that it expands gambling too much. The North Side Democrat also said he's willing to
scrap plans for year-round horse racing with slot machines at the state fairgrounds in Springfield. But
Cullerton said he wants to keep the five new casinos, including one in Chicago. And the lawmaker
discounted the idea of getting rid of slot machines at other horse tracks, saying it would jeopardize
support for the package at the Capitol.

Joliet Casinos Losing Business to Rivers
Chicago Sun Times - Business at southwest suburban Joliet's two casinos took a big hit in August
because of competition from the new Rivers Casino. August revenues were down nearly 16 percent at
Harrah's Joliet and more than 8 percent at Hollywood Casino Joliet. It was the first full month of
business for Rivers Casino, which opened in Des Plaines in late July. The casino generated $34 million
worth of gambling business. All but one of the other nine casinos in Illinois saw a drop in revenue from
August 2010, but Rivers Casino did so much business that statewide casino revenues were up 18

Gambling bill contains little-known tax breaks casinos
Mark Brown, Chicago Sun-Times - Little discussed in the massive gambling expansion approved earlier
this year by the Illinois Legislature were new tax breaks for casinos, the main beneficiary of which would
be the planned city-owned casino in Chicago...Instead of today's progressive gaming tax rate that starts
at 15 percent and peaks at 50 percent of gross receipts for the highest-earning casinos, the new
graduated rates would peak at 40 percent, then start back down again to a low of 20 percent for
casinos bringing in more than $350 million a year from slot machines. For the first time, the legislation
would also create a separate, lower tax structure for table games such as poker and blackjack.

Movement Is Nearing on Bill for Casinos
Kristen McQueary, New York Times - Despite delays and debunked predictions, as well as a never-
ending wait for Gov. Pat Quinn's decision on a gambling expansion bill that narrowly passed the state
legislature this spring, supporters of expanded gambling said they expected to find common ground by
Oct. 25, the first day of the fall veto session...the waiting game may be ending soon. Unless Mr. Quinn
outlines his concerns "in short order," legislative leaders will present him with their own version of a
cleanup bill, known as a trailer bill, that will, among other things, tighten control over the proposed

WinnaVegas thankful to be near normal again

WinnaVegas and the Winnebago Tribe operating it, the outlook for the facility is no longer bleak. The
road leading to the casino was reopened Thursday, enabling visitors for the first time in nearly three
months to drive up to the building. It was a happy, thankful day for tribal council members, not just to
see casino operations nearing normal, but to see employees and fellow tribe members returning to jobs

WinnaVegas thankful to be near normal again
Nick Hytrek, Sioux City Journal - The road to WinnaVegas Casino remained dusty Thursday, a
reminder of the mud deposited upon it by Missouri River floodwaters this summer. All around the casino

WinnaVegas and the Winnebago Tribe operating it, the outlook for the facility is no longer bleak. The
road leading to the casino was reopened Thursday, enabling visitors for the first time in nearly three
months to drive up to the building. It was a happy, thankful day for tribal council members, not just to
see casino operations nearing normal, but to see employees and fellow tribe members returning to jobs
