Questions about winners Q: Why aren’t there an equal number of mail-in
winners and Internet winners?
A: Because the drawings select entries at random, the ratio between mail-in winners and Internet winners generally follows the ratio of entries received from either the mail or the Internet. If there are more winners from mail-in entries, it means that there were generally more entries received through the mail than through the Internet, and vice versa. A: Winners' names and hometowns are posted on the second chance web site following the validation of winners, approximately one week after each drawing. Also, while we cannot guarantee delivery of emails for reasons beyond our control, we do send emails to all drawing winners whose entries were submitted via the Internet. A: It takes approximately one week from each drawing for drawing winners to be validated and processed before the WINNERS LIST is posted at the second chance web site. A: After the physical drawing takes place, the winning entries need to be reviewed and verified for eligibility. The winners’ information is data entered and certified by the Lottery before posting on the web site. A: There may be times when Internet email delivery fails through no fault of the Lottery or its Internet service suppliers. Click on the “HOW TO CLAIM PRIZES” menu button and follow the instructions to claim your prize. A: It’s the luck of the random drawing that determines who wins and who doesn’t. With tens of thousands of entries received for any drawing, your chance of winning requires a lot of luck. A: Winners are randomly selected from all mail and Internet entries received for each drawing. Drawings are held under the observation of an independent Certified Public Accounting firm. A: Your odds of winning will vary, based on the total number of entries that are received for a drawing and the total number of entries that you have submitted. A: The asterisk indicates that the winner entered the drawing via the Internet. Included with those names are the ticket numbers associated with the winning entry.
