Delaware Governor Jack Markell said on Wednesday that an expansion of gambling in his small state is possible, include Internet gambling.

Delaware's Gaming Competitiveness Act of 2012 is the piece of legislation in question.

The proposal includes allowing internet sales of Delaware Lottery games such as Pick 3, Powerball and scratch-off games, as well as online casino-style games.  Also, sports lottery would be expanded to at least 20 additional sites in Fiscal Year 2013, and Keno - a bingo-style game - would come to about 100 sites throughout the state.  Currently sports wagering and casino-style games and slots are only authorized at Delaware's three racetrack casinos:  Dover Downs, Delaware Park and Harrington Raceway. 

Three years ago, Delaware became one of the few states to legalize sports betting on a limited parlay basis.
