ALBANY — Roll the dice!
That’s the message New York voters are sending Gov. Cuomo as they overwhelmingly approve the governor’s plan to legalize non-Indian casino gambling in the state.
A new Quinnipiac University poll yesterday found voters by better than 2-1, at 64-31 percent, favoring legalizing Atlantic City or Las Vegas-style casinos.
Cuomo earlier this month said he would seek the Legislature’s approval in January for a constitutional amendment legalizing casino gambling, a process requiring at least two years and approval by two separately elected Legislatures and a public referendum.
The new poll found support for casinos strong in all parts of the state.
New York City voters backed casinos by 65-27 percent.
