TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) - Kansas Lottery sales hit $240 million during the budget year ending last June 30, the Senate Federal and State Affairs Committee has learned.
Lottery director Ed Van Petten told the senators that during that 1-year period, $71 million was transferred to the state, $134 million was paid in prizes and $14 million in commissions were paid to retailers who are Lottery vendors.
Van Petten said the Lottery is 1.35% behind last year's sales because the jackpot games weren't performing as well as previous years.
He said the Lottery hopes to make up the shortfall during January, February and March, when ticket sales are highest. |
