ballot for voters to decide, provided the number of casino licenses were limited, counties were given a local option regarding whether to allow casinos in their communities, and all state revenue generated by the casinos was designated for healthcare, education, and protecting the state's economy. In late September, Conway and Lee participated in a candidate forum held by the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce. During the forum, Conway reiterated his priorities of reducing drug and Internet crimes, while Lee trumpeted his support for right-to-work laws and opposition to Kentucky's prevailing wage requirements. Lee also said Conway's acceptance of an endorsement from the Sierra Club and opposition to tort reform proved Conway was anti-business. Conway responded that he opposed caps on medical malpractice awards but favored other "common sense" ways to reduce frivolous lawsuits. The candidates agreed that the state constitution needed updating, but both said they would not support a constitutional convention to replace the entire document. Both candidates also expressed support for the death penalty. When Lee expressed socially conservative views in favor of posting the Ten Commandments in public spaces and opposing abortion and domestic partner benefits, Conway countered that Lee would not impartially consider the merits of cases involving those issues because he had already made up his mind about them. In an early October candidate forum on Kentucky Educational Television, the candidates repeated several themes from the previous forum, but also addressed the issue of prison overcrowding. Conway said he supported rehabilitation activities in lieu of jail time for nonviolent offenders, while Lee maintained that incarceration was a deterrent to crime and said the state should study whether or not more penal institutions should be constructed. Lee attacked incumbent Attorney General Greg Stumbo's investigation of Governor Ernie Fletcher's hiring practices as politically motivated. He also thought politics motivated Stumbo's suits against OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma for the drug's widespread abuse in Appalachia and Marathon Petroleum for price gouging in the aftermaths of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Conway commended Stumbo's investigation of Fletcher as necessary and said he would likely continue to pursue the case against Purdue and Marathon if elected. Conway won the general election on November 6, 2007, with 611,925 votes (60.5%) to Lee's 394,953 (39.5%). Service Conway was sworn into office on January 9, 2008, at the Capital Rotunda. The oath of office was administered by former Kentucky Supreme Court Justice Martin Johnson. The
