19 Issues facing the Lottery No support from legislative leadership or Governor to change restrictive laws Periodic attacks on the Lottery by politicians, the press, or anti-gambling interests Maintaining credibility despite the politics Maximizing our profit for our beneficiaries Legal restrictions that limit profitability Minimum 35% profit requirement Limits on locations where lottery products can be sold Limits on types of games that can be offered (video, Keno) Limits on other aspects of conducting business Employee pay Advertising restrictions Prohibition on some use of the Internet Restriction to “cash only” for purchase of tickets

20 Largest issue facing the Lottery is one of profitability The Lottery exists to provide funding for Oklahoma education programs. The Lottery Act indicates that all profits go to the State to benefit Oklahoma Education. The Act also says the Lottery is to “Maximize” profits for education. The main restriction on Lottery profitability is the minimum 35% profit requirement. By requiring a set % as a profit, the amount of funding that can be put into prizes is restricted. This limits the acceptance of the products by the players, limiting both sales and profits. Every state lottery that has improved payouts has dramatically improved sales and increased profits for their beneficiary.
