Stacey Abrams is running for governor of Georgia. She supports legalizing sports betting and casino gambling. Governor Brian Kemp is opposed to this. Most polls suggest Abrams trails Kemp by 4 points. Georgia is one of four states that does not have casinos, pari-mutuel wagering, racetrack betting, iGaming, or sports gambling, along with Hawaii, Utah and Vermont. The state representative sponsored a bill that would create the Georgia Sports Betting Commission. It failed. Georgia's governor is Christian. More than one-third of the Republican primary voters in Georgia are evangelical Christians.
