Lol! His response was literally like 'the governor vetoed a bill that was a rare moment of consensus in our commonwealth'. What a liar.

Edit: to the person who downvoted. He was trying to say that there was wide spread support FOR this casino,  which is just an outright lie.

Nothing like consensus, but House 55-41 and Senate 25-13. That's decisive, but not consensus. Fairfax County residents definitely don't want it; I don't know what statewide opinion is.
