Kentucky Attorney General Jack Conway said June 15 lawmakers have the authority to allow casino-style gambling at horse tracks without amending the state constitution.

A constitutional amendment isn't necessary if the state legislature passes a law putting the Kentucky Lottery Corp. in charge of the proposed video gambling terminals, Conway said in an advisory opinion released Monday.

"My staff and I simply followed the law and allowed it to lead us to the proper legal conclusion on this issue," Conway said.
