January 25, 2010

FRANKFORT, Kentucky: A slot machine referendum may appear on the November 2, 2010 ballot in the state of Kentucky as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment. The proposed measure would allow voters to decide whether to allow an expansion of gambling. The referendum would require any slots proposal or any other gambling issue to be ratified by voters.[1]

The possibility of a referendum surfaced when a proposal hit the floor during legislative session calling for the legalization of slots at Kentucky horse tracks. The measure may be proposed by Senate President David Williams.
