  • Lottery Privatization: the Equity Potential of Government Lotteries,” in CCA Research Report (Christiansen Capital Advisors LLC, 2001)
    Initial Examination on Reforming the California Lottery Summary The purpose of this examination of the California Lottery is to determine which means of improving lottery performance and revenue generation are available to the California state government and what actions must be taken in order to make these solutions possible. To this end, this report provides a general overview of the lottery’s cost structure and performance over the last several years. The report also directly compares California’s performance against those states which lead the nation in per capita lottery sales and net revenues. Currently, the California Lottery is restricted by mandates that although they secure the percentage of funding for education each year at 34 percent of net revenues, also serve to severely restrict any investments in games or equipment that would boost the actual growth of lottery sales. The lottery is also restricted in terms of the kind of games that can be offered, as well in being able to utilized up-to-date technology. These restrictions prevent the California Lottery from effectively emulating either enacted or proposed changes in other states and countries. Several other states have enacted or are considering changes to their lotteries that should be considered in California as means for improving lottery performance. The most notable examples of these include the establishment of an autonomous quasi-public lottery corporation in Connecticut, increasing lottery sales by raising the percentage of sales money returned to ticket buyers as in Massachusetts and Texas, and the leasing of lottery operations to a private company or consortium as has been done in the United Kingdom and is on the verge of happening in Illinois.

However, some options could represent expanded gambling. The Department of the Lottery continues to outperform the legislative performance standard for its operating expense rate, which is the third lowest in the nation. We reviewed procedures for retiring scratch-off games and followed up on prior findings regarding the launch of a new mobile app, responsible play initiatives, preventive measures against underage play, and the retailer integrity program. The department determines the end date of lottery games based on factors such as sales level, the games’ seasonality, and whether a game has any top prizes remaining. When all of the top prizes in a game have been claimed, the department sends notifications to retailers’ lottery terminals and updates the Florida Lottery website and mobile app. In June 2020, the department launched a new mobile app.

    For Immediate Release April 2, 2020 Contact: Anna Domoto 515-453-1401 [email protected] Update – Game sales and interest rates to determine advertised Powerball jackpot Guaranteed starting jackpot amounts & minimum jackpot increases to be eliminated URBANDALE, Iowa – The Powerball Product Group today announced its decision to determine Powerball’s advertised jackpot based on game sales and interest rates. Following the April 8 drawing, guaranteed starting jackpot amounts and minimum jackpot increases will be eliminated, and future jackpot increases will be determined and announced by the Product Group prior to each drawing. Previously, Powerball® jackpots started at $40 million (annuity) and increased by a minimum of $10 million (annuity) between drawings. “These changes are necessary to ensure that ticket sales can support the Powerball jackpot and other lower-tier cash prizes,” said Gregg Mineo, Powerball Product Group Chairman and Maine Lottery Director. “Our number one priority is making sure that the Powerball game can continue to assist lotteries in raising proceeds for their beneficiaries.” The Powerball Product Group announced plans last week to reduce the starting jackpot to $20 million (annuity) and minimum jackpot increases to $2 million (annuity) between drawings. Those changes were scheduled to go into effect after the current jackpot was won. However, due to the evolving COVID-19 pandemic, the Powerball Product Group revisited the topic and decided Powerball’s advertised jackpot should be determined by game sales and interest rates effective following the drawing next Wednesday. “Since last week, more states and cities have asked their residents to stay at home, which has affected normal consumer behaviors and Powerball game sales,” said Mineo.
