After watching New Jersey generate over $930 million in legal sports betting in November, 90% coming online, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is reportedly ready to go all in.
In a statement to the New York Daily News, Cuomo will announce his plan for legal sports betting in New York during his State of the State address later in January.
“New York has the potential to be the largest sports wagering market in the United States, and by legalizing online sports betting we aim to keep millions of dollars in tax revenue here at home, which will only strengthen our ability to rebuild from the COVID-19 crisis,” Cuomo said.
