Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) has received more than 7,400 e-mails regarding the Menominee Nation off-reservation casino, WTMJ reports.
WTMJ reviewed about 100 of the messages and said most were in support of the Kenosha casino. Writers cited the need for jobs in the state, one of Walker's frequent campaign promises.
"I believe if you do not approve this, you will not be re-elected," one person wrote, WTMJ reported.
After promising a decision by the end of October 2013, Walker has not said when he will make a decision on the casino.
