Gaming tax revenue from Nebraska racetrack casinos continued to grow in September, according to state records.

Racetrack casinos generated a total of $1.582 million in revenue for the state, cities and counties.

That number reflects a 20% tax on the casinos’ total gross revenue for the month of $7.914 million.

The September tax revenue was up from $1.551 million in August and $1.544 million in July.

Three racetrack casinos are currently open in Nebraska: WarHorse Casino in Lincoln, Grand Island Casino Resort in Grand Island and Harrah’s Columbus NE Racing & Casino.
