The better question is should a track be doing stuff like this?

If one of the voters is swayed by a 1/2 page ad that Hollywood Park puts out...they shouldn't have a vote. The ad just gives goobers something to talk about.

That did not answer my question. To me a track shouldn't be doing things like this. IMO

You're absolutely right. What the hell does Hollywood gain by doing this? It's sour grapes from an organization that can certainly spend their money, even if the amount is considered infinitessimal by a racetrack's standards.
