ELOT is the only company I'm aware of--and I should know since I've been living and breathing internet gambling since April, 1999-- whose sole focus is gaining governmental approval for internet gaming. Heck, most of the rest are either foreign or OTC:BB. The two other leaders are both Canadian, CRYP & SNMM.

Hopefully, once ELOT gets its foot in the door they will offer other forms of gambling.

And I think political opposition is mainly showboating. Politicians are supposed to be for the small farmer, small businessmen, attracting high tech industries to their districts, and opposition to the evils of gambling. If so then why do 38 states (with S.C. coming on board) have lotteries and more and more have casinos. It's easy to explain. Gambling is a painless way to raise revenues.

Happy Holidays.
