New Jersey governor to file brief in favor of sports wagering - | 12:30:48
posted by: Marta Lawrence

ESPN reports that "New Jersey governor Jon Corzine is ready to file a brief in support of an existing lawsuit claiming the 1992 federal sports betting ban is unconstitutional."

According to ESPN, Corzine's actions are important because the governor appears to be reacting to Delaware's recent approval of sports wagering in their state under the guise that it will help offset a growing state deficit. It may also bring the federal ban on sports wagering one step closer to being overturned.
