Nebraska lawmakers send casino bid to voters

printer friendly
The Nebraska Legislature on Wednesday narrowly approved a two-casino measure for the November ballot.

The proposed constitutional amendment needed 30 votes to be placed on the ballot. It received 31 votes.

The measure is seen as a compromise to an earlier versions that would have allowed up to eight casinos. It is seen as a more reasoned alternative to a ballot initiative to allow video gaming in bars throughout the state.

If the amendment is approved, Nebraska's four recognized tribes would be able to offer gaming on their lands.
