The latest polls show that almost 60 percent of Ohioans favor a Constitutional Amendment to allow casino gambling in the state. Similar proposals have been rejected four times in the past, but the recession seems to be lossening voter opposition. Wednesday morning at 9, we continue our coverage of the November ballot with a forum on Issue 3. Advocates say casinos would be the economic boost the state needs. A diverse group of opponents have evidence to the contrary. And both sides are funded by gambling interests. We'll hear from them all so you can make up your own mind.Bill Cohen Ohio Public Radio Statehouse News Bureau
