Sports Wagering one step closer in NJ....
Accordingly, under this bill, New Jersey would decide that its “exact contours of the
prohibition” against sports wagering should be to repeal New Jersey’s prohibitions
against sports wagering “at casinos or gambling houses in Atlantic City or at current
running and harness horse racetracks in this State.”
Therefore, the proposed law states the following:
1. All prohibitions, including, but not limited to, Chapter 37 of Title 2C of the
New Jersey Statutes, against wagering on the results of any professional,
college, or amateur sport or athletic event, are partially repealed to the extent
they would apply to such wagering at casinos or gambling houses in Atlantic
City or at current running and harness horse racetracks in this State.
2. This act shall take effect immediately.
Portion of a letter written last week by Dennis Drazin in regards to the Supreme Court deciding not to hear an appeal by NJ for sports wagering. Looks good for NJ sports wagering!
