A University of Georgia poll shows 63% of voters already support legalization, but despite that overwhelming backing, lawmakers punted on the chance to put it on the 2025 ballot.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is moving full speed ahead. Thirty-nine states have legalized betting, while only nine remain on the sidelines.

Offshore operators are taking full advantage of the gap!

According to BookMakers Review, Costa Rica-based Bovada boasts 177,000 active players and 11 million monthly visits. NEXT/Blask reports Bovada handled $13 billion in wagers in 2024—more than FanDuel and DraftKings combined.

Even states with legal options are struggling to compete. In Florida, for example, Hard Rock Bet controls just 20% of the market, while offshore sportsbooks dominate the rest.

As the football season begins, one of the busiest betting periods of the year, Georgia continues to watch tax revenue leak out of state. Research shows that problem gambling rates barely rise even as access to legal betting expands, raising questions about whether continued delays do more harm than good.
