Thousands of new slot machines
Propositions 94 through 97 ask voters to uphold agreements allowing four Southern California Indian tribes to add thousands of new slot machines. Compacts negotiated by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and the tribes – and approved by the Legislature, would boost the number of slot machines in the state by more than 25 percent, to about 77,000. 
The state would receive between 15 and 25 percent of the profits from the new machines. The non-partisan Legislative Analyst’s Office estimates that California would reap about 200 million per year during the next few years – growing to the *low- to mid- hundreds of millions of dollars* annually during the latter years of the agreements, which would expire in 2030. Proposition 94:
- Tribe: Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians, Riverside County.
- Casinos: Remain at two.
- Nevada-style slot machines: Increase from 2,000 to 7,500.
- New annual payments to state general fund: $44.5 million or more.
Proposition 95:
- Tribe: Morongo Band of Mission Indians, Riverside County.
- Casinos: Remain at two, plus a small auxiliary gambling site.

Proposition 96:
- Tribe: Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation, San Diego County.
- Casinos: Remain at two.
