It appears that Maine could be the next state in the region to legalize sports betting. Maine’s sports betting bill, LD 1352, is now in the hands of Governor Janet Mills for the second time this year.

Maine sports betting is just the latest in a long line of states that consider legislation to legalize the practice, which is approved in at least 28 states.

Will legislators be able to legalize Maine sports betting this time around? They certainly have the tax incentive to encourage passage.
