New Jersey voters oppose allowing casinos outside Atlantic City, poll shows
A Fairleigh Dickinson University (FDU) poll recently found that New Jersey voters would oppose any expansion of casinos outside Atlantic City. Such a move would require an amendment to the state’s constitution, which would need to be approved by voters in a referendum.
According to the latest survey, opinions remain similar to previous editions. Some 44 per cent of respondents said they would support a move to allow casinos outside of Atlantic City. That compares to 42 per cent in 2014 and 41 per cent in 2016. The poll showed that opposition is slightly higher in areas around Atlantic City, particularly surrounding the Meadowlands.
