Our Governor has selected Red Lion over Steve Wynn who pulled out of the bidding several months ago due to the convoluted proecess.

"Instead of picking world-class MGM Mirage or Hard Rock Entertainment to run the city's first video-slot parlor, Gov. Paterson is betting on the company that runs the largest casino in all of . . . tiny Elko, Nev. "

Probably because the politicians get more of a kickback. Just another way to take money from the residents of New York State. Good luck with that!
