The forthcoming presidential election in the US is considered by the online gambling industry as one of the greatest chances that the industry has in order to overturn the very controversial Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act. After the UIGEA had been passed in 2006, the United States have received a huge number of problems concerning international relationships with countries like Antigua and the 27 member states forming a part of the European Union.

The Bush Administration stands behind the online gambling ban and has to permit various revisions to the questionable legislations in spite of requests from the US financial establishments. So, the gambling community is pinning the hopes on an administration change in the US and predicts that, if Barack Obama is elected, he is the most likely to change an existing online gambling legislation.

As the election is coming nearer, many in the internet casino gambling industry have analyzed carefully election policies of both candidates, in other words they have made an analysis of the Republican and Democratic platforms, candidates’ statements, and other things.

In accordance with the analysis results, Anthony Cabot, Las Vegas lawyer, has concluded that Obama is likely to be the better vote, at least from the point of view of supporting the internet casinos. The UIGEA considers online gambling at the online casinos illegal and whilst not punishing the American gamblers, the current drafting of the legislation places the burden of implementation directly on the shoulders of the banking industry of the United States.
