Letter to the Editor Resident Questions Countys Reversal on Casino

I was wondering what kind of pitch the representatives from Howe Caverns gave the supervisors for them to make a complete 360 and vote "yes" for a casino. They voted "no" just last month. 

Could it be that the main player in the game is Chris Tague? He wears many hats in Schoharie County. Mr. Tague is General Manager of Cobleskill Stone and also the representative and spokesman for Howe Caverns. Another hat he wears is for the Republican Party of Schoharie County. He is the Vice Chairman.

That concerns this taxpayer very much as the Republicans hold a majority on the board. It just might be a conflict of interest. I hate to say it, but it looks like the Good Ole Boys are at it again.
