Casino money flows to SW Missouri political committee

The Quapaw Tribe, which recently opened Downstream Casino, is spreading its money around politically.
According to a 48-hour report filed Sept. 18 with the Missouri Ethics Commission, the tribe contributed $5,000 to the Southwest Missouri Leadership PAC, the committee which was formerly known as the Nodler Leadership PAC.

The treasurer of the PAC, Joplin CPA Nick Myers, is also treasurer for the campaign committee of Rep. Ron Richard, R-Joplin.
