The aim of the survey is to provide data on how many individuals support or oppose the legalization of a casino industry on the island. The results from the survey, however, will be non-binding. This means that these results will not affect any prospective law or policy regarding the issue.
Those registered to vote in the CNMI will be eligible to participate in this survey. For those who have not registered to vote, the deadline to register to vote and still be able to participate in the survey is Friday, Oct. 21, at the Commonwealth Election Commission.
