Murphy says New Jersey could consider casinos beyond Atlantic City
New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy said he is open to casinos in the state’s northern or central regions, while weighing the effect on Atlantic City. His comments come as New York City prepares to award three casino licences; a New Jersey bill to permit casino games at Monmouth Park and the Meadowlands would require a constitutional ballot.
Any expansion could affect Atlantic City, the state’s only location for slot machines and table games.
