Unlike most states, Nevada does not have a lottery. Instead, Nevada residents can cross state lines to buy lottery tickets in other states. However, there are no official lottery websites in Nevada, so there are no games available online.
A few other states have legalized online lotteries. The first state to do so was New Hampshire. New Hampshire started selling lottery tickets in 1964 and has a variety of draw games. The lottery offers games like Mega Millions and Powerball. In addition to these games, the state also offers an e-Instant game that is played on a mobile phone. This is similar to a scratch-off game, but there are also casino-like games available on the Internet.
Another multi-state lottery is the Iowa Lottery. The lottery offers Powerball, Mega Millions, and Lucky for Life. The lottery is run by the Multi-State Lottery Association, which is comprised of 33 states. The lottery is known for its massive jackpots. The jackpots are shared among the states, which results in increased ticket sales.
In Maryland, the lottery is known as the Maryland Lottery. There are several draw games, including Mega Millions, Powerball, and the Keno game. The proceeds from the lottery go to the state’s general fund and public schools. The lottery also offers a number of scratch-off games. Ticket purchases can be made in local stores or at gaming establishments. Those who win a prize of more than $5,000 must fill out a W2-G form. Those who win less than $500 will have to pay a tax on their prize.
Delaware began selling lottery tickets in 1974. The state offers eight draw games. It has also launched an online version of Megabucks Plus. The lottery has contributed over $5.5 billion to educational programs and public school projects.
Massachusetts is currently in the process of legalizing an online lottery. Several Northeastern states are considering expanding their lotteries to the Internet. In the future, other states are likely to authorize online lottery ticket sales. However, online lotteries are not as popular as sports betting. The primary utility of online lottery websites is to provide contact information and the winning numbers.
Wyoming has a lottery called WyoLotto. In addition to the regular games, Wyoming also offers a multi-state draw game called Lucky for Life. The jackpot for the last drawing of the year was estimated at over $1 billion. It was won by three lucky people. The jackpot was split among the three winners.
