Delaware is the only state east of the Rockies that is allowed under federal law to offer sports betting.
The number of business leaders who asked me to lower their taxes can be counted on one hand.
So, for me the town hall meetings are really an opportunity to engage in two-way dialogue with people, and they've been very helpful.
As governor, Im spending my time focused in three areas: creating jobs, reducing the expense of government and schools.
But I'm a big believer that government does not have a monopoly on good ideas.
My own experience, though, as a business executive and as a governor, tells me that businesses are interested in a lot more than a low tax rate when they decide where to locate.
As one of the first employees at a small cellular phone start-up called Nextel, I gained firsthand experience in how a business grows from an idea to a company that, at its peak, employed many thousands.
