"Rep. Stephen Maitland, R-Gettysburg, sponsored the amendment that passed by a vote of 199-0.
"The amendment was attached to an omnibus package of changes to the slots law that now heads to the Senate, where the fate of the Gettysburg-area ban is uncertain.
"Maitland's effort is meant to block the Crossroads Gaming Resort and Spa, proposed at routes 30 and 15 by a group of investors led by Gettysburg businessman David LeVan.
" The House vote is the latest round in a slots debate that has attracted national attention, and it could lay the groundwork for months of legislative maneuvering over Gettysburg-area slots "
