Crist allows gambling bill become law

Gov. Charlie Crist, who during his campaign last year insisted he was against the "expansion" of gambling in the state of Florida, has for the second time this week allowed
         a   gambling bill to become law.  Crist allowed SB 134 to become law Friday "without his signature."
The legislation, sponsored by Sen. Larcenia Bullard, allows cardrooms at dog tracks, horse tracks and jai-alai frontons to also stage a game of dominoes for money. Earlier this week Crist allowed another gambling bill to become law without his signature. SB 752 expands the pots used in poker games at cardooms
