But no approvals for any casino have begun yet. This is just to get to the starting line. The Borough President is one of 6 votes to make up the board that will send recommendations to the siting board down the line. You need to get 4 out of 6 votes there. There is no reason for the governor, mayor, or any borough president (each who have a vote on the board) to be voting no on any of the proposals, this guy is just a fool.
