ANNAPOLIS – The Maryland Senate approved legislation Tuesday morning that would allow a sixth casino license in Prince George’s County and expand gambling to allow table games at all casino locations in the state.

Senators voted 35-11 for the gambling bill after a debate late Monday night, with six of eight Prince George’s County lawmakers voting in favor of the measure, which authorizes the state lottery commission to select a casino site at either National Harbor or Rosecroft Raceway in Fort Washington.
