Author: John Brennan

John Brennan has covered the issue of the expansion of legal sports betting since New Jersey voters approved a ballot question backing the idea in 2011. He covered the lawsuit by the NFL and four other sports organizations against the state from 2012-018, when the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a 26-year-old federal law that effectively had given Nevada a monopoly on sports betting. Since then, Brennan has tracked betting legalization efforts in every state, including North Carolina.
