   THIS WEEK'S POLL
Wyoming’s lottery law bans scratch off tickets and instant win games, and only allows tickets for weekly drawings. Wyoming’s lottery is still being organized and no tickets are being sold yet. Lottery experts say the instant win products are very lucrative, and states make more money from them than the weekly drawings. State legislators thought that instant win and electronic lottery games were too close to gambling, and could lead to gambling addiction problems.   Should Wyoming change its lottery law to allow all types of lottery products?



A state legislative committee is considering a bill that would have the Wyoming Public Service Commission place caps on the rates that towing companies can charge. The committee believes some towing companies charge excessive rates. A representative from the towing industry says there are some bad apples, but the industry should deal with the problem itself, and not fall under new government regulation.   Should there be more government regulation on towing companies in Wyoming?





   LAST WEEK'S RESULTS
(WyomingNetwork does NOT represent this as a scientific poll.)
Wyoming Senator Mike Enzi is co-sponsoring the Coins Act, which would switch from paper dollar bills to dollar coins in American currency. Enzi says switching to dollar coins could save taxpayers millions of dollars, because the coins would last longer than paper currency.   Should the dollar bill be replaced by dollar coins?

Yes, switch to dollar coins
33.9%

No, keep paper dollars
66.1%

The Patriot Act authorized the National Security Agency to conduct surveillance to protect America against terrorist threats. The surveillance includes internet and phone records of American citizens. Some in Congress believe that goes too far, and is an invasion of privacy.   Should the NSA be allowed to review internet and phone records in its efforts to stop terrorism?

Yes, allow the surveillance to continue
31.1%

No, the surveillance goes too far
68.9%
