The left's outrage over the IRS turns to a plea to 'move on'
The possibility of manipulation of the 2009 D.C. Lottery contract is not the only corruption angle that has drawn the attention of government investigators.
Two former D.C. Cabinet officials are dismayed that their joint request for an investigation by the Inspector General's Office of the D.C. Lottery contract has gone nowhere.
Just because Congress didn't object to a bill authorizing online gambling in the District doesn't necessarily mean that federal lawmakers agree that the city can start running online poker.
D.C. Lottery Executive Director Buddy Roogow showed his optimism in July when he sent an e-mail to DC09, the joint venture that operates the lottery: "The project is going to go well. Get ready to set records."
"The IG has all of the information from the investigation, and we have not heard back from them in many months," said the spokesman, David J. Umansky.
Mr. Umansky confirmed that no one from the CFO's office has been contacted by the OIG in over a year.
