Texas Gov. proposes selling the lotteryReply
Your point would be well taken IF lotteries had mechanical ball drawings that were televised and there are multiple potential witnesses. Since many lotteries are computer drawn and there is no way of knowing how the drawings really work it would be very easy to rig. Remember a lottery doesn't just have to be rigged so someone wins it can also be rigged so more people loose. The latter may be far more profitable for a private company and hard to detect with computer drawings.

I can tell you that the games are NOT rigged and that there is no government conspiracy going on. Sorry you have doubts, but I can assure you its the odds that are bad in games, not the drawings itself. It's c

Fixed LotteriesReply
Rigged (obscene accusation) or not, people still win hundereds, thousands and in some cases (rare jackpot winners)... millions from lotteries. The numbers won't always cooperate in a random game. Even though there are trends with numbers it just won't happen the same way every time. The state has to make it challenging... after all, their goal is to make money. But there is no way it can be rigged. Well, I'm sure there are ways to rig it, but it doesn't happen. So it happened once in P

How can PB be rigged if it's ball-drawn? Maybe it can happen in Hot Lotto.
