Default Re: FLORIDA ALLOWING POKER GAME STAKES TO BE RAISED IN JULY!

Oh, sorry, I also forgot to mention that the Governor has seven days (if the legislature is still in session otherwise ten days if not in session) to sign the bill "ONCE THE BILL IS PRESENTED TO HIM". Now I'm a little unsure how one tracks when a bill is presented to the Governor once passed by both Houses.

The best I could find out from the House and Senate Websites is that once a bill passes in must be "Enrolled" which means that the Clerk of the Chamber where the bill originated must gather the Attestation from the fellow chamber as to the authenticity of the bill's written contents before it can be presented to the Governor.

I don't how long this whole process takes but I can only imagine that it shouldnt take more than a couple of days.
