RGA on the air with anti-Gregoire casino video
By Bryan Bissell, PolitickerWA.com Reporter
Gov. Chris GregoireThe Republican Governors Association will take to the Washington state airwaves today with a television ad about the tribal gaming negotiations done by Gov. Chris Gregoire's office that resulted in less gambling in the state, but along with that a rejection of revenue profit sharing between the tribes and the state.
The RGA's policy does not allow them to give specifics on the size and scope of the ad buy, but spokesman Chris Schrimpf said it would be a "significant tv buy" that would be seen by a large number of local voters.
The ad says that the revenue-sharing deal turned down by the governor, which they call "bizarre", would have been able to help with social services in the state, and tries to connect the negotiations with later campaign contributions from local tribes as a payoff.
Gregoire's campaign has called the attempt to make an issue of out of the casino deal "desperate", and maintains that the deal was right for Washington.
"In the state of Washington we had a healthy debate about revenue sharing," Gregoire spokesman Aaron Toso said, "and Republicans and Democrats alike agreed that it wasn't best for the state."
