Sherrill could lose and then what happens?
It's really not about her. It's more about him finishing dead last and now being gone. Menendez is gone too. Old guard. It's just one obstacle removed, and with Sweeney a major one. Dennis Drazin has made it clear, if there's a referendum, he wants on it. Sure, we all know it's great to want things, LOL. I think casinos outside AC are inevitable. Not if, but when.
Downstate NY getting a casino has caused a lot of talk in NJ. There has been a very clear recent and strong push. Just two months the formal step was taken to revisit casino gambling, specifically at the Meadowlands and Monmouth Park. This came from Senator Gopal and Senator Sarlo, the latter being a very, very powerful person in NJ politics and commerce and industry. The bill (Bill SCR130) is already going through the legislative process. Sure, the opposition from AC casinos will be loud. But, I think there will be a case specific referendum on the ballot in November 2026. If not, 2027. It's a horse race.
