Another Push For Casino Gambling In Kentucky


Last Update: 11/06/2008 9:25 pm
The push for casino gambling died this year in the General Assembly.  But, don't look for it to stay dead.

It was one of the linchpins of Governor Steve Beshear's campaign last year.

Churchill Downs President Bob Evans says he's ready to push lawmakers again.

The measure that didn't make it out of the General Assembly last year was for expanded gambling at race tracks. It also would have allowed casinos to be built.

But, backers say it's hard to assess their chances with the new General Assembly until a specific proposal is drafted.
