In response to three casinos, his answer was a direct "No." Democratic challenger Tony Sanchez was more accommodating. He said "Yes" to the question "Would you favor legislation allowing the state's three federally recognized Indian tribes to offer casino gambling on their reservations?" He also said he would consider proposal for non-Indian gaming but didn't say he supported them. Get the Story:
