North Carolina has legalised sports betting, after governor Roy Cooper signed House Bill 347 into law today.
The path to legalisation has been winding, with efforts ramping up in the last few months. The bill was voted through by the state House last week, after it was voted through the state Senate one week prior.
It was first introduced on 13 March. The bill in its final form was presented to the governor on 9 June.
