新泽西草地赛马场欲添加老虎机

　　草地赛新的运营商马场，一直在推动一个想法，那就是为了支持赛马业，应该在新泽西加入老虎机和其他赌场赌博。星期四加大赌注，这意味着从老虎机渠道获利来源，他将缴高达55%的税收入。

　　Jeff Gural，将他的“非正式建议“在州议会听证会的草地，预测率近七倍的赌场，大西洋城现在-将产生350000000美元的年收入状况。

　　民主党议员拉夫卡普托贝尔维尔和共和党总统罗纳德舞者海洋县称为“改变游戏规则”gural建议，因为它将保持竞争优势，现在是大西洋城遗址举办的：设施如宾馆房间，高档的餐厅，和大型音乐会。

　　“我不会参与那些在大西洋城度假胜地”，gural补充说，他的预计是在梅多兰兹拥有4000至5000的老虎机。

　　但，当被问及这个传说和大西洋城的时候，克里斯蒂从来没有让步星期二。

　　“我们在我们现在的一个五年计划的第而年，”，在特伦顿的某个事件克里斯蒂说道。“我说我已制定了一个五年计划，我当然不会去改变它。所以我认为任何关于扩展游戏到北部的国家，或任何其它的国家的谈话，都是浪费时间。”

　　gural说部分的槽收入应当用来加强在草地和斯公园的赛马皮包，他说赛马球迷在赌场同样是花钱的。

　　The new operator of The Meadowlands Racetrack - who has long pushed the idea that slot machines and other casino-like gambling is needed to support the horse racing industry in New Jersey - upped the ante Thursday, suggesting he would pay a tax of as much as 55 percent of revenue derived from slot machines at the track.

　　Jeff Gural, who offered his “informal proposal” at a state Assembly hearing at the Meadowlands, predicted that rate - nearly seven times what the casinos in Atlantic City now pay - would yield $350 million in annual revenue for the state.

　　Democratic Assemblyman Ralph Caputo of Belleville and Republican counterpart Ronald Dancer of Ocean County both called the Gural proposal a “game-changer” because it would preserve a competitive advantage now held by Atlantic City sites: amenities such as hotel rooms, high-end restaurants, and major concerts.

　　“I wouldn’t be competing with those resorts” in Atlantic City, Gural said, adding that his estimates were based on having 4,000 to 5,000 slot machines at the Meadowlands site.

　　But Christie was not budging Tuesday when asked about the hearing and Atlantic City.

　　“We’re into our second year now of a five-year plan,” Christie said at an event in Trenton. “I’m certainly not going to change course when I said that I had set out a five-year plan. So I think any conversation about extending gaming to the northern part of the state, or anyplace else in the state, is a waste of time.”

　　Gural said he agreed - to a point - with the stance taken by Christie and state Senate President Stephen Sweeney, D-Gloucester, that Atlantic City should be given time to get back on its feet before their statewide monopoly might be revisited.

　　“I agree with the governor to give Atlantic City a chance, but I don’t think you need to give them five years - maybe two years,” Gural said.

　　He hopes to open his new $85 million grandstand at the site of the current Meadowlands backstretch by the end of 2013. Gural said a casino could be built next door to the new facility, near Paterson Plank Road and the NJ Transit tracks.

　　Gural said that a portion of the slots revenue should be used to bolster horse racing purses at the Meadowlands and Monmouth Park, saying that horse racing fans wind up spending money at the casino as well.
