Jefferson City, MO – New campaign reports show the interests that support a casino near Branson have now raised almost $12 million to get their message out.
That's opposed to the group that opposes the casino, called Show Me You Care, which has raised just $1.4 million.
Missourians next week will decide whether the state's constitution should be changed to allow for a casino in Rockaway Beach. Right now the constitution only allows for gaming on the Missouri or Mississippi River.
