Gaming seen under Minnesota governor's budget

Tuesday, January 25, 2005  

Minnesota lawmakers are expected to see some form of gaming under Republican Gov. Tim Pawlenty's new budget.

Pawlenty has hinted at a possible casino in the Twin Cities for three remote tribes. He turned to the idea after other tribes rejected his demand for $350 million in gaming revenues.

Pawlenty will make his budget public today.
