Place your bets. Sports gambling has a shot at passing this week. “It should pass in the Senate,” said Rep. Stephanie Clayton (D) District 19. “It’s pretty tight.” Clayton lives in the Kansas City area, where she says casinos and other sports venues could bring in a lot of revenue from sports gambling being legalized inside the State of Kansas. She says the key is the Kansas senate. “If there are more than 21 votes in the Senate, it would go to the governor,” said Clayton. Wichita Representative Tom Sawyer says if the measure passes, the money the state would make on betting would not have to go to the general fund.
