As a result of decreasing revenue and economic conditions, many states have tried to legalize gambling or, in states where gambling is already legal, expand casino operations. For example, New Hampshire legislators recently added games of chance and raised the limit on a single wager. They also passed legislation to more closely regulate gambling by charitable organizations. To measure public opinion in Kansas, a random sample of residents was selected and each response was categorized according to revenue preference and age. The results are given in the two-way table.
