MSNBC launches poll on new U.S. anti-online gambling moves

10/5/2006 (Online-Casinos.com) The MSNBC website was busy Wednesday when the news and entertainment broadcaster launched a poll to assess opinions on the weekend legislative moves to disrupt financial flows from American players to online gambling sites.

Under the heading "Should Online Gambling Be Illegal?" the poll provides three voting options for visitors:

Yes, Internet gambling fuels betting addictions.

* No, people should have the freedom to wager any way they choose.

* It doesn't matter what Congress passes, there will always be ways to gamble online.

After only a few hours responses had almost reached the 3 000 mark, promising a similarly strong response to a poll on the same subject run by the Wall Street Journal earlier this year which attracted over 9 000 responses. As we went to press, the results - like the earlier WSJ poll - were strongly in favour of legal online gambling at 93 percent.

Readers who would like to study the current state of the survey, and perhaps register a vote can find the poll at http://msnbc.msn.com/id/15119408/
