Mississippians by droves participated, through other state lotteries, in the $1.6 billion Powerball lottery that was won recently, but the state of Mississippi did not participate.
Mississippi is one of six states that does not conduct a lottery. The others are Alabama, Nevada, Utah, Hawaii and Alaska.
If you live in any of these states, you can play a state lottery, just not your own state. You can subscribe to the Massachusetts State Lottery by phone, they will ship subscriptions to your address, anywhere in the US.
Rep. Preston Sullivan, D-Okolona, said, “A lot of money is leaving Mississippi going to other states.”
The attention created by the record Powerball payout has created new interest in the Mississippi Legislature for a state lottery.
