not sure of perry's stance, but this was the response i got from the white campaign when i asked about it 3 months ago.

Under current Texas law as interpreted by the Attorney General, any expansion of gambling in this state would require a constitutional amendment, which requires a statewide vote. This means that expanding the gambling “footprint” to include new forms of gambling such as slot machines or casinos could only occur after a statewide vote to amend the constitution. Some people support expanded gambling because they believe it brings an economic benefit to the state, and that people who gamble in neighboring states are spending money that Texas could capture. Some people oppose gambling because they believe it has negative economic consequences for low income populations, and some oppose gambling for religious reasons.

Bill White does not encourage or promote gambling. As Governor, he would not promote or oppose legislative efforts to change the Texas Constitution concerning gambling. He believes that use of the Governor’s office to promote gambling in Texas would distract from the principal missions of state government - ensuring economic growth and a well-educated workforce. Bill White would abide by the will of Texas voters on any Constitutional amendment.

Just wanted to bump this thread to encourage everyone to go out and vote! Counting today, you have 4 days left of early voting! Go out and cast your ballot while it's still convenient to do so!
