STATE LOTTERY -- Amends existing law to provide that the state lottery may employ an electronic display for reporting a winning or losing lottery outcome when the displayed lottery outcome is associated with a printed lottery ticket presented by a player.

STATE LOTTERY

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

This legislation simply requires that a lottery outcome be associated with a printed lottery ticket as is typical with most lottery games. It intends to maintain the slow pace of the lottery experience to help maintain the original "for entertainment purposes only" flavor of the lottery. This bill would affect the electronic Touch Tab machines currently in use and prohibit other "casino-like" games in the future.
