Poll Shows Support For Legalizing Nationwide Sports Betting

(Undated)  --  A new poll is showing strong support for legalized nationwide sports betting, something Oregon already enjoys.  A University of Massachusetts Lowell-"Washington Post" poll released today indicates a majority of Americans support making gambling on professional sports legal in all states.  The results differ greatly from 20 years ago, when 56 percent of those surveyed by Gallup-CNN and "USA Today" opposed legalizing sports betting.  The latest poll shows 55 percent of those surveyed support making gambling on professional sports legal in every state while 33 percent are opposed.  Sports betting is only legal now in Oregon, Nevada, Delaware and Montana.
