S 9103 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Prohibits gambling on elections

S 9103 prohibits betting on the outcomes of political elections. It directly affects individuals and businesses that operate or place wagers on election results, such as betting on who will win a presidential or congressional race. The bill amends existing gambling law to add a specific ban, making it illegal to "gamble upon the results of any political election" under current definitions of gambling. This change takes effect immediately upon enactment.
