WPCNR MR. & MRS. & MS. WHITE PLAINS POLL. August 4, 2008: Should the legislature continue expanding gambling in New York State as a means to bailing the state out based on last week's dire financial forecasts? (And sparing the legislature of the task of spending wisely) What do Mr. and Mrs. and Ms. White Plains think? Are we tired of Connecticut and Atlantic City getting all the action?

Vote if you approve of "Anything Goes" Casinos for the state of New York -- then come back tomorrow and pick where Westchester should have it's casino -- after all Westchester's where the money is. Pick from the following locations:

1. White Plains -- Silver Lake --  Build the casino/hotel/convention center on the White Plains side of Silver Lake just below Woodcrest Heights on the county open space property. It's close to the airport for easy fly-in.

2. New Rochelle-- Davids Island or Glen Island. Davids Island, long the apple of developers' eyes is an obvious place for sail-in gambling. Or failing that renovate famous Glen Island. This is the best spot for a casino in the County.

3.Yonkers -- expand Empire City -- or failing that put a casino in on the waterfront downtown.

4.Peekskill -- on the river. Peekskill could use a casino to revive and gentrify that city and provide jobs.

5.Tarrytown waterfront -- an excellent way to fund the Tappan Zee bridge. Lay in a casino on the old GM property and yacht club area.

6. Gambling Boats up an down the Hudson

7. Rye Playland -- Build a casino on the Playland water front  extending out on the Sound. It will pay to preserve the park and that wonderful children's museum.

8. City Island -- not exactly Westchester but a great location

9. Orchard Beach -- augment the famous Robert Moses-built park with a hotel-casino-convention center on either side of it.

10.Hart Island --in Long Island Sound --
