Newspaper says an expansion of non-Indian gaming in New York doesn't look too good right now:
Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo doesn’t like the odds shaping up on passage of a referendum legalizing non-Indian casinos in the state. So he and state lawmakers are talking about improving the chances of passage by delaying the vote. The Legislature has yet to take a second vote on submitting to the voters a proposed constitutional amendment allowing up to seven casinos in the state. If approved, though, a referendum could be put before the voters in this fall’s elections. However, there are no statewide races or federal offices up for election that would draw voters across the state to the polls, which doesn’t bode well for the referendum.Get the Story:
