The popularity of New Jersey online casinos has been unprecedented since the bill was passed for its legalization back in 2013. From then, it took until 2013 for online gambling to be permitted, when it was overwhelmingly approved by the New Jersey Legislature.
Lottery and horse racing betting was very common back in the early 1800s, but all forms of gambling were outlawed in 1894.Īlthough the enforcement wasn't particularly strict, gambling was prohibited from 1894 until 1939, when racetrack betting was then legalized again.
The state of New Jersey has always been more open-minded when it comes to gambling in comparison to other US states.
