by Tim Nelson, Minnesota Public Radio

ST. PAUL, Minn. — State gambling regulators say that electronic pull-tabs are coming online.

Regulators say they believe problems have been minimal. Nearly 2,800 establishments in Minnesota are eligible to have the games and more distributors are already asking the state's gambling control board for approval for more games.

Taxes on the new electronic pull-tabs are expected to pay the state's $350 million share of a new NFL stadium for the Minnesota Vikings.
