Prop 26 is one of the two options to legalize sports betting in California that will be on November’s ballot.
California voters can support retail sports betting at tribal casinos and racetracks through Prop 26, and online California sportsbooks through Prop 27.
Funding for the fight between both pro-campaigns and their opponents had already brought in more than $400 million in contributions by mid-September.
Quick hits on Prop 26
- Californians can legalize sports betting in person at tribal casinos and racetracks by voting yes on Prop 26 on Nov. 8.
- Prop 26 does not include online sports betting. Online sportsbooks could launch in five to 10 years, tribal representatives said previously.
- Cardrooms are the biggest opponent of Prop 26. The proposal also changes the law to let tribal operators sue cardrooms directly for offering tribal-exclusive card games.
What is Prop 26?
Prop 26 is a ballot proposal that would legalize retail sports betting at tribal casinos and horse tracks throughout California for anyone 21 and older.
