Maybe he would get re-elected. Certainly don't think folks in Saratoga Springs itself would be the only ones hurt though.

I could see a missed meet putting a lot of businesses under. Can't imagine he wants that on his hands.

Hopefully not something that becomes a reality, but if NRYA lays off 2/3 of staff and can't race at Belmont. I would not rule it out in any fashion.
