Three other Virginia cities that had aligned with casino partners also saw voters approve of similar measures last year, including Bristol (aligned with Hard Rock International), Portsmouth (Rush Street Gaming), and Norfolk (Pamunkey Indian Tribe). In 2020, voters in Danville overwhelmingly voted to allow for casino gambling, a referendum that was backed by Caesars. “The people of Danville have entrusted us to build a world-class resort, and we look forward to proving that trust was well founded with an incredible resort worthy of the iconic Caesars brand.” “Caesars Virginia will be an economic driver for the region, both as a tourist and entertainment draw and through the more than a thousand good-paying jobs the resort will create,” Anthony Carano, president and chief operating officer of Caesars Entertainment, said in a Thursday statement.
