An attempt to prohibit Advance Deposit Wagering (ADW) on greyhound racing in North Dakota has been unsuccessful. The proposed measure, which aimed to ban online bets on greyhound races, was rejected by the North Dakota House of Representatives.
ADW allows bettors to place wagers on greyhound races through online platforms, providing a convenient way to participate in the sport. However, concerns have been raised about the welfare of the animals involved in greyhound racing, leading to calls for greater regulation.
Supporters of the ban argued that greyhound racing is a cruel and outdated form of entertainment, alleging that the animals are mistreated and subjected to inhumane conditions. They believe that prohibiting ADW on greyhound races would help protect the welfare of the dogs.
Opponents of the ban defended the industry, stating that proper regulations are in place to ensure the well-being of the greyhounds. They argued that banning ADW on greyhound racing would negatively impact the state’s economy and limit options for bettors.
Despite the efforts to end ADW greyhound racing bets in North Dakota, the proposal was ultimately unsuccessful, leaving the industry intact for now.
