    • Allowing this proposal will undermine the integrity of our elections and our democracy.
    • Allowing betting on election outcomes will create strong financial incentives for special interests to manipulate and interfere in our elections.
    • Allowing this proposal will reduce voter confidence, and lead to a perception that election outcomes are not solely determined by voters’ choices, but also by those who bet on election results.
    • Allowing this proposal puts personal gain ahead of the public interest.
    • Allowing this proposal undermines the principle of one person, one vote – the bedrock of our democracy.
