The Mohegan Tribe of Connecticut will soon learn whether its second commercial casino bid in Massachusetts can move forward.

Voters in the city of Revere will go to the polls tomorrow to consider the $1.3 billion Mohegan Sun Massachusetts. If they reject it, that's the end of the road for the tribe.

But if voters approve, the tribe will still be in the running for a commercial gaming license in the eastern region of the state. The tribe's first bid for a license in western Massachusetts ended at the ballot box last November.
