We get it: not only do we get to play the horses but we also get to feel xtra special since the state pols are so involved in our sport.
Why are there no 'special interest' groups whose sole function is to expose 'crooked' pols? Not like the resources aren't there. Now, THIS is something that would be very easy in NY (and elsewhere). As soon as they '**** up', get them the **** out of there. Maybe something might get done that way.
