Bechler undecided on support of sports gambling

State Representative Lynn Bechler of Marion says he’s undecided on whether he’d support legislation to legalize sports betting in Kentucky.

Kentucky Sports Radio Host Matt Jones is attempting to compile a list of which legislators support and which oppose sports betting and Bechler said on the show Wednesday morning that he’d have to review specific legislation before deciding how he’d vote.

Representative Myron Dossett of Pembroke and state Senator Whitney Westerfield of Christian County have already committed as no-votes to sports betting.

Bechler, a Republican, represents a portion of Christian and all of Crittenden, Caldwell and Livingston counties.
