Re: Early House Report Card
[ QUOTE ]
Shelley Moore Capito (R.-WV).. Won in 2006 with 57% of vote. Likely to be challenged by pro-gaming Democrat John Unger II.
[/ QUOTE ]
I have received 2 letters and a phone call from her office.
She is vulneable and likely will lose to Unger.
Proudly she supports the UIGEA and unfortunatly sits on the House Financial services Committee.
The sad part is she really had (now a least an understanding) no clue what UIGEA even was. In the phone call she believed it outlawed ALL Internet gambling.
Though I really wish the GOP would come around, I am going to be supporting Unger as will my wife. He will have wide spread support.
There are thousands of Poker players even here in my small county and the surrounding area from the turn out Friday for the WV state poker qualifier.
And yes, I was there (and no, I did not hit the lottery in the qualifier) and talked to several people support online Poker and gave them info on the PPA.
