The state is just following what the voters want.

The NJ state Legislature passed the bill last week that could pave the way for privately owned sports wagering at both casinos and horse-racing tracks. This was done to save the gaming and racing industry which have both fallen on hard times in the recent years with the influx of bordering states opening casinos. The voters approved the bill in 2011. Governor Christie signed it into law in 2012. My reply was on the comment made by horses4courses that all states should give their voters the right to decide not the Supreme Court!
