Casinos run by Wynn and Boyd could flourish in Georgia if gambling becomes legal, executives indicate to legislators
In a significant development, two major casino operators - Wynn Resorts and Boyd Gaming - have expressed interest in potentially establishing casinos in the state of Georgia, should the state's constitution allow gambling.
The potential expansion of casinos in Georgia has been linked to these two companies, with Wynn Resorts' president, Christopher Gordon, and Ryan Soultz, vice president for government affairs at Boyd Gaming, expressing their interest to Georgia lawmakers.
The state of Georgia is currently considering removing or amending its constitution to allow gambling. If this amendment is made, both Wynn Resorts and Boyd Gaming might expand their operations in Georgia.
The first casinos considered by these companies, if Georgia lawmakers favor state gambling, are expected to be located within Georgia. Boyd Gaming, in particular, has been reported by Bisnow to express a desire to be in Georgia should voters allow it.
However, the proposal to remove or amend Georgia's constitution to allow gambling is still facing a steep hurdle to move forward. The exact timeline for any potential changes remains uncertain.
In the event that the constitution is amended, the expansion of casinos in Georgia could involve both Wynn Resorts and Boyd Gaming. This could mark a significant shift in the state's entertainment landscape, potentially bringing in new jobs and revenue.
As the situation develops, it will be interesting to see how Georgia lawmakers respond to these expressions of interest and whether the state's constitution will be amended to allow gambling. Stay tuned for more updates on this evolving story.
