Santee Sioux Tribe's hope lies with Nebraska voters

The Santee Sioux Tribe's dream of offering Class III gaming at its casino rests with Nebraska voters this November.

A proposal on the ballot would legalize slot machines, table games and other Class III games at bars and other establishments. If approved, tribes would be allowed to offer the same games.

The tribe was informed by the Interior Department that only lotteries, keno and pari-mutuel horse racing are legal in the state.
