Big bet a bust in bid to allow sports gambling in California

$460 million was raised in competing efforts to expand gambling in California. Voters rejected the proposition that would have allowed adults to wager on mobile devices and online. The proposition to legalize sports gambling at tribal casinos and horse tracks had less than 30% support. The money raised more than doubled the record amount spent in 2020 by Uber, Lyft and other app-based ride-hailing and delivery services. Gambling in the state is currently limited to Native American casinos, horse track, card rooms and the lottery. It's also illegal to offer roulette and dice games.
