The US elections have dominated the news, but what will Obama mean for the coin-op industry? Before the elections, the US trade association AMOA took an informal survey among its membership. It got 92 votes, which was not exactly representative since there are about 1500 members. Anyway, McCain got 51 and Obama got 41. Also, the gaming executives in Las Vegas were mostly McCain supporters.
There are two possible explanations, according to our US contributor Sharon Harris, "Obama will add new taxes on business income and profits, plus they are trying to do away with the secret ballot for unions. In other words, it would be possible that unions could go door to door and try to persuade people to join a union, no matter the size of the company. There would be no privacy as to someone voting to join or not."
It will be interesting to see whether these predictions come to pass and how long the current honeymoon period will last.
