Override Christie. Trouble is the NJ state Republican leaders who live near Monmouth Park like Joe Kyrillos, Jennifer Beck, Declan O'Scanlan, Sean Kean, Bob Singer don't the courage to override Christie.

I suppose the gov could signal to the senate and assembly republicans that an override would carry no negative implications. Understand that political aspirations may have driven the bus here but also think the Gov's aversion to legalized pot may have had something to do with this. It would be a lot harder to say no to pot after saying yes to sports betting, and that may be why all the language on Federal laws being "sacrosanct"
