The fate of casino gambling is just one of four ballot questions being put to Massachusetts voters.
The questions - which also touch on expanding the state’s bottle deposit law, repealing a measure related to the gas tax, and allowing workers to accrue sick time - are getting almost as much attention as top political races.
Casinos and other supporters of expanded gambling have raised nearly $12 million to defend the 2011 law, which allows Massachusetts to license up to three casinos and a single slots parlor. They say the law will create jobs and be a boon to the economy.
Critics have argued that casinos harm local economies, prey on those who can least afford to gamble away their money, and lead to gambling addiction.
Polls open at 7 a.m. Tuesday.
