Elected officials on Monday urged Maryland voters to support ballot initiatives to expand gambling, allow same-sex marriage and in-state tuition for some illegal immigrants, while opponents planned to visit polling places statewide on Tuesday in hopes of persuading voters to reject them.
Gov. Martin O'Malley, appearing at a rally in Baltimore, used some new lyrics to a popular ode to West Virginia to try to convince voters to expand gambling. The variation of the song "Country Roads" has been used in ads aimed at garnering support for expansion, which is opposed by a gambling company that owns a casino in West Virginia just over the border.
"Maryland cash, bring it back, to the place where it belongs. Not West Virginia, don't let 'em spin ya. Maryland cash, bring it back," O'Malley said, noting the issue was about jobs and schools and keeping money in the state.

So, elected officials want citizens to vote for measures that benefit Casino Operators,, illegals, and sexually abnormal people. When do they intend to do something for the burden carrying Citizens? Think about this before you vote them back into office.
