Lottery chief objects to governors hands out checks at Greenville
In South Carolina the lottery commission warned that prize checks must be issued only by lottery staff after Gov. Hodges visited Greenville to hand out checks. Executive director Passailaigue called the event a policy breach and stressed that winners receive checks directly from lottery employees. A board member criticized Hodges for politicizing the program, while the governor’s spokesman defended the visit as part of an outreach plan.
