As of my knowledge cutoff in early 2023, California does not allow online sports betting through platforms like DraftKings, as the state has not passed legislation to regulate and permit such activities. Sports betting is currently legal in California only at tribal casinos and horse racing tracks, where it is permitted under specific agreements.
However, California lawmakers have been considering proposals to expand legal sports betting to include online and mobile platforms. There have been efforts to put measures on the ballot for voters to decide on the expansion of sports betting, but as of now, no initiative has been successful in legalizing online sports betting in the state.
It’s important to note that the situation regarding gambling laws can change, and you should check the current legal status in California before participating in any form of sports betting. Always ensure that any betting activity is conducted within the legal framework and through licensed operators.
