Biography

Companies in the New York City area is expected to receive State approval to open and operate three gambling casinos. Though the process has been described as competitive and subject to State oversight, multiple news outlets are already predicting that New York State officials plan to reward two existing racinos (Resorts World New York City at Aqueduct Racetrack and Empire City Casino at Yonkers Raceway) with gambling casino licenses, raising the spectre that the fix is already in, meaning, only one casino license is truly up-for-grabs in the State competition for bids. Each gambling license will generate at least $1 billion in combined fees and economic development for New York State.
