89 second prize winners for the powerballReply
and that is exactly what they should be transparent about it bc that means there was a glitch and can't be trusted. Not to mention there's been a few occasions where the PB doesn't broadcast the game due to 'technical issues'.

$50 scratch-off lottery trend takes off in multiple statesReply
I forget where exactly the quote was broadcast but Doyle Brunson makes the point that some people just have IT in them to gamble 1,000,000 dollars on a coin flip and some don't. I think it was in reaction to something but the exact details elude me right now.

Wisconsin Republicans to hold hearing on lottery privacy billReply
They keep saying they need to broadcast winners for transparency and to build public trust in the lottery.

Or are Australians more trusting and Americans too suspicious?

Maryland Lottery Does It AgainReply
They don't show the drawings on WBAL, channel 11, because of the kids shows, BUT they broadcast the WBAL 12:00 news, which does show the drawings, on MeTV channel 208 on Comcast. The midday drawings are the same time as any other midday drawing.
