Questions about entries and tickets
Q: Can I enter a drawing more than one time?
A: Yes. There is no limit to the number of entries you may submit. However, one entry is allowed per non-winning ticket, either online or by mail.
Q: I have tickets that I can’t remember whether or not I have entered in the drawing. How can I see what tickets I have entered?
A: Each time you submit an entry, it is recorded at the bottom the SUBMIT ENTRY screen. All of your entries appear on that list for your information and reference, so you can check the list against the tickets you are holding.
Q: How can I be sure that my Internet entry has been submitted?
A: When you submit your entry, a record of it shows up on the bottom of your SUBMIT ENTRY page. If the entry is recorded there, you can be assured that it is in the system.
Q: Are my chances of winning better if I mail in my entries?
A: The chance of an entry being selected in a drawing is exactly the same whether entering via U.S. Mail or the Internet. Each entry has an equal chance of winning regardless of the method of entry.
Q: Can I double my chances to win by entering a ticket on the Internet and then mail it in as an entry?
A: No. An Internet entry is not eligible to be mailed in, and vice versa. Entries that are found to have been mailed in and also submitted on the Internet will be disqualified.
Q: I would rather mail in my tickets. How do I do that?
A: Check the ticket back or RULES page for instructions on how and where to mail in your entry.
Q: Can I delete my entry from the SUBMIT ENTRY page?
A: You can delete an entry before the drawing deadline for that entry. Click on the date next to the entry that you wish to delete and follow the instructions.
Q: Do I have to save the tickets I’ve entered online?
A: The Lottery will not require you to show the tickets entered online. However, you may want to keep any tickets entered online in case you accidently delete an entry when registering.
Questions about winners
Q: What are my chances of winning a prize in a second-chance drawing?
