The feds have opened an investigation into Gov. Paterson's awarding of a lucrative contract to a politically connected group to run a gaming center at Aqueduct Raceway, according to a new report. A source said the US Attorney's office in Brooklyn is looking into whether the sleaze-soaked process involved any wrongdoing, WPIX/Channel 11 reported today on its Web site.
Paterson has come under fire by members of his own staff for awarding the contract to Aqueduct Entertainment Group, which includes Rev. Floyd Flake, whose political support the governor has been seeking. Losing bidders have also considered filing suit against Paterson for allowing the consortium chosen to operate 4,500 video slots at Aqueduct Racetrack to clean up its act after the fact.
