Default NYRA stiffs state for 11Mil

ALBANY - Gov. Spitzer's choice to run New York's thoroughbred racing tracks for the next three decades has stiffed the state of nearly $11 million in fees over two years, The Post has learned.

A bombshell audit being prepared by the state Comptroller's Office found that the scandal-plagued and bankrupt New York Racing Association, which currently operates the tracks, uses questionable expenses to short-change the state, a knowledgeable source told The Post.

"It's not good," the source said of the audit. "Basically, [the NYRA's] books have been mismanaged and are out of whack."

This is most likely propaganda but regardless do you know how little $11 million is in NYS over two years? That is a quarter a year per person.
