O’Malley Slots Broker

Martin O’Malley is battling Governor Robert Ehrlich for his seat, and thinks he stands a good chance at getting it. People in Maryland have been trying to get slot machines legalized for a long time now, yet the governor has not been able to get that accomplished.

When Ehrlich ran he had the support of the slot machine and casino industry behind him, but as a Republican coming up against a sea of Democrats, he was unable to get the slot machines approved. O’Malley thinks he will stand a much better chance of getting the slot machines legalized as he is a Democrat as well.

Maryland wants slot machines, and it has been batted back and forth around the government for a long time now. O’Malley also thinks the governor should have taken a more active role in the slot machine legalization, something he is prepared to do. He said he wants to see a “limited number of slots at a limited number of tracks” and has no plans to put slot machines anywhere else. He does not want to see casino gambling but feels the racinos are just fine.
