I can't put into words my anger, resentment and disappointment in the actions of my elected officials.
It was already illegal to bet online any race that took place inside the states boundaries, now they have made it illegal to bet on races outside the states boundaries.
All this is intended to increase the sales of admission, hot dogs and beer at the track, not to mention the small increase in profit buy eliminating the ADW's.
Since very few people can walk to the track this would increase the consumption of oil by driving and revenue of mass transit.
All this does is eliminate us senior citizens on fixed incomes and limited physical mobility and puts barriers in the way to attract new and younger computer literate horseplayers.
Saturday I signed a contract to sell my home at a loss and am going to another state this week to find a place to buy in a more friendly environment.
My name address and number and voting district is available on request.
