Nebraksa Coalition Raises $800,000

LINCOLN, Nebraska -- A petition drive to legalize casinos and about 4,900 slot machines across the state has collected $800,000.

The Keep the Money in Nebraska coalition, which includes Coast Casinos of Las Vegas, Nebraska's horse racing industry, keno operators and local communities, received $400,000 last month, its report showed Monday. It had earlier collected $400,000 from its key supporters.

Backers of a separate petition drive, which would allow slot machines but not casinos, as of Monday had not yet filed the April financial report with the state.
