re: Mobile Sports Betting in LA starts Friday!

So please tell me about geofencing.... what to do if you live in these parishes??

===================================

WHICH PARISHES VOTED DOWN LEGAL LOUISIANA SPORTS BETTING?
In total, voters in nine parishes effectively “opted out” of gambling expansion. In most of them, the ballot measure saw a narrow defeat. Following are the nine parishes and the certified tally in alphabetical order.

Caldwell – No 2,284 (52.11%) to Yes 2,099 (47.89%)
Catahoula – No 2,281 (52.03%) to Yes 2,103 (47.97%)

Mobile Betting Restrictions
Setting the framework for mobile betting was an even lengthier process than usual. This is because Louisiana residents approved the measure in all but nine parishes.

As a result, gaming regulators had to ensure that geofencing technology excluded these areas. Lawmakers also had extra work on their plates as these parishes will also be excluded from tax benefits from betting.

For those living in Louisiana’s 55 approved parishes, betting will be as easy as checking your texts. Aside from the freedom to bet anywhere, mobile betting enables players to wager on the action as it happens.
