BOSTON (AP) — Anti-casino activists on Wednesday set their sights on Springfield, which would be home to Massachusetts’ first licensed casino, as they attempt to win voter support for a November ballot question to repeal the state’s casino law.

Organizers for “Repeal the Casino Deal” chose the city to hold their first formal meetings with volunteers since the state’s highest court cleared the way for the question to be placed on the ballot. They said Springfield represents a key battleground since it would be home to a proposed $800 million MGM resort.
