MCDCC says no to slots

The Montgomery County Democratic Central Committee formally opposed November's slots referendum on Wednesday.

In a 16 to 1 decision, with 1 member abstaining, the committee voted to take the opposite stance of County Executive Isiah Leggett (D-Montgomery County).

Leggett reluctantly announced his support for November's slots referendum last week.

Registered Democratic voters in Montgomery County will see the committee's position on a sample ballot prior to the election as a result of the decision. The sample ballots will also be handed out at polling places on election day.
