Campaign contributions flagged at Monticello Raceway
The Monticello Raceway paid over 12000 in campaign contributions in a five year span ending 1973, per papers filed with the Sullivan County clerk by the OCTF. Former Asst. State Atty. Gen. John Laurence Kase says the filings suggest possible violations of Section 460 of the Election Law. Monticello lawyer John F. McBride says the revised law allows corporate expenditures up to 5000 per calendar year.

New York Monticello Raceway President Leon Greenberg, indicted on four counts of mail fraud and one of conspiracy, will meet with the State Racing and Wagering Board within days.

He noted such action typically follows larceny or robbery indictments and stressed no suspension is guaranteed or imminent.
