State Sen. <a href="https://towson.patch.com/search?keywords=Jim+Brochin" rel="nofollow">Jim Brochin</a> said Thursday that people have a right to be disappointed in how the Maryland General Assembly session ended earlier this month and suggested expanded gaming should not be part of a special session. "People are right," Brochin, a <a href="https://Towson.patch.com" rel="nofollow">Towson</a> Democrat, told former state Sen. Clarence Mitchell IV Thursday afternoon on <a href="http://www.wbal.com/shows/c4-show" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">WBAL Radio's C4 show</a>. "It's an absolute disgrace." One of the issues, Brochin said, was whether or not Senate President <a href="https://towson.patch.com/search?_utf8=%E2%98%83&amp;keywords=Thomas+V.+%22Mike%22+MIller" rel="nofollow">Thomas V. Mike Miller</a> held a budget compromise hostage in return for a bill expanding slots to Prince George's County and legalizing table games. "If it's not about gaming then when we go back in special session then it should not be about gaming," said Brochin. "Gaming should not be on the table." Brochin also called for Miller and House Speaker Michael Busch to show the public their plans for addressing the so-called Doomsday Budget. "Let's look at their plans straight up on TV or radio or online," said Brochin. In the end, Brochin said expanded gambling is a non starter for him. "I'm pro gaming but I won't vote for gaming in a special session and I wonder how many other senators have said they won't vote for gaming in a special session too," Brochin said.
