New York governor says clock ticking in Seneca gaming battle

New York Gov. David Paterson (D) says the Seneca Nation has until October 26 to resolve differences over the Class III gaming compact.

The tribe agreed to share 25 percent of slot machine revenue with the state. But the tribe is withholding $214 million because it said the state has violated the exclusivity provisions of the compact by allowing an expansion of non-Indian gaming.

The tribe has offered to share the money directly with local communities. But Paterson said that isn't possible under the compact.

If the two parties fail to come to an agreement, they will head into binding arbitration.
