This is the 4th time they put in a Casino issue and it has been rejected!

Casino's are a losing proposition all the way around. The crime rates go up, the number of gambling addicts go up, and the amount returned in taxes and jobs never equals the amount lost from all the downsides. The jobs aren't exactly high paying, usually low level service level positions, so the whole job base argument is weak as well.
They'd be better off trying to do something to attract business that produce something, and pay better.
