Colorado: Supporters of expanded gambling turn in signatures for crowded ballot Shaun Boyd, CBS4 · August 1, 2020 at 6:03 pm Colorado could see more types of casino games and higher bet limits. Supporters of a measure that would allow gaming towns to raise the stakes and legalize new games turned in signatures this week. Right now, if casinos in Colorado want to raise the limit on how much people can bet, the whole state has to approve it. Under the ballot measure, only Black Hawk, Central City and Cripple Creek would have a say. The economies of the three communities have been hit hard by COVID-19. Residents like Michelle Joyce believe the ballot measure could be a lifeline, “We’re the ones who voted gaming in in the first place. We’re the ones who live and die by it.”
