So what is so unique about these casino workers that provisions are made so they can vote at their place of employment?

The casinos are the life of the city, doubly so in the evening. Since Nevada has a caucus, the workers can't just run to the polls for a few minutes before or after work or vote absentee.

I love it that this rule was pushed through by the Clinton controlled state democratic committee when she expected to walk to her nomination on rose petals.

“I love it that this rule was pushed through by the Clinton controlled state democratic committee when she expected to walk to her nomination on rose petals.”

You’re 100% correct. This strategy was worked out between the campaigns, and agreed to by the campaigns. Hillary’s arrogance is galling, and it’s delightful to see her suffering the unintended consequences.

That said, this rule is actually a travesty - making it so that only casino workers have the option of voting where they work and everyone else in the state has to drive to the precinct where they live at exactly 11:30. This lawsuit shouldn’t have attempted to shut down those at-large precincts, but give every voter that same opportunity. In that we see not only why it failed, but what its real purpose was.
