Linn County Casino Gambling Vote Final Results

The final results for the Linn County casino vote.


With 100 percent of precincts counted, a vote of 36,876 Yes to 23,391 No, 61.9 percent of Linn County voters have given the green light to a new casino being built in Linn County.

Now the investor group looking to build a casino in Cedar Rapids will have to apply with the Iowa Racing & Gaming Commission to obtain a state gaming license.

The Gazette has a nice map of where the votes came in by precinct. There is also a PDF attached to this article with the results by precinct including Marion's results.
