ANNAPOLIS, Md. -- Maryland's Democratic Party chairman is helping an Indiana-based casino company line up a lobbyist and local investors to pursue a planned racetrack casino venture in southern Prince George's County.
Chairman Wayne Rogers said he sees no conflict in working with Centaur Inc., on the Rosecroft Raceway project -- though the Democratic party's candidate for governor adopted a strong "no slots" stance during the recent election.
"I don't think the Maryland Democratic Party has taken a position on slots," Rogers said.
Centaur is part-owner of the Hoosier Park track in Indianapolis and owns several casinos in other states.
