(Oklahoma City-AP) -- All three candidates for governor say they'd be open to at least discussing a plan to put gambling machines at Oklahoma horse racing tracks.

The tracks say they need casino gaming machines to compete with the state's tribal casinos.

Democrat Brad Henry says he supports the idea. Independent Gary Richardson says he'd like to put it to a vote of the people. And Republican Steve Largent says he supports further discussion and study of the issue.
