I liked Elliot because he seemed to be trying to reform the upper 1% of American wealth. I cannot speak intelligently regarding his views on the NYRA situation.

Ummm... the guy's family is richer than the world. I don't know what his perogative is but it seems awfully conflicting.
I care a lot about this state because (a) I've lived here my whole life and (b) lived in every part of it from it's worst ghetto areas to it's ritziest areas of Manhattan so I know what's right and wrong with this place. Upstate NY gets screwed every way in funding and that's important to me that those areas get improvement, or we're going to be looking at an even more divided state.
As far as racing goes, NYRA is his worst enemy. He hates them almost as much as he hates the NYSE- this was the death knell for NYRA.
