Ullman: Greyhound Simulcasts? No!

On her Facebook wall, Ada County Commissioner Sharon Ullman writes: “The Idaho Racing Commission confirms that Les Bois Park has never been licensed for live dog racing. That means that the simulcasting of greyhound racing (live dogs racing in other states being broadcast here in Ada County) is a felony under Idaho Code 54-2514A. The Racing Commission chairman claims that their attorney says it is okay. It’s not.”

DFO: Long-time Kootenai County residents recall how Duane Hagadone & star-struck local politicians pushed through legislation to create greyhound racing at the Post Falls track — and then how the practice was later banned after Spokesman-Review exposes on how the dogs were mistreated.

Question: Should simulcasts of greyhound racing be allowed in Idaho?
