It's been illegal in Cali for as long as I can remember. I don't remember voting on it. But, it probably was proposed in the early 1900's and voted on by our elected officials. I think we had a vote to allow the lottery and Indian casinos.
I don't know why Canada doesn't tax horse race winnings. Hopefully, someone knows the reason.
