The first modern government-run US lottery was established in Puerto Rico in 1934, followed by New Hampshire in 1964; today, lotteries are established in 44 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. Why do some states refuse to sell Powerball tickets, or have state lotteries at all? The reasons vary. A BBC story published during an earlier giant Powerball jackpot frenzy in 2015 noted that Hawaii has long feared that gambling would damage the tourism industry, while Alaska is awash in so much oil money it doesn’t need gambling revenues. 44 States already have a domestic lottery service, and since a portion of state revenue. A number of states have started to roll out online lottery services over the last few years, whether it is a full range of games or a select few. Find out where you can play over the internet in the U.S. And which other states might be offering online lotteries soon.
