Gov. Martin O’Malley is holding the first of two important meetings today, the results of which may answer a question that’s been asked for months: Will Maryland expand its casino program?
Here’s some other headlines:
- The Washington Post reports on possible gambling compromises that could lead to the calling of a special session.
- POLITICO profiles O’Malley, calling him “the sharpest-tongued, most enthusiastic and aggressive advocate for President Barack Obama’s reelection campaign.”
- The Baltimore Sun reports that Democratic challenger for Maryland’s 6th Congressional District, John Delaney, out-raised incumbent Republican Rep. Roscoe G. Bartlett this quarter.
- MarylandReporter.com reports that Del. Frank S. Turner, D-Howard, who chairs the House subcommittee that deals with gambling issues, still thinks the legislature should only consider expanding gambling through allowing table games.
