Hodges Seeks South Carolina Lottery Plan With Oversight Board
Governor Hodges proposes a seven member commission appointed by the governor and approved by the Senate to oversee a privately run state chartered lottery. The plan would require performance bonds for retailers and license loss for rule violations. Secretary of State Miles, an opponent, argues the program can be funded from expected revenue gains without state gambling. Kevin Geddings leads the Education Lottery campaign with ads featuring a fictional Bubba and references to 60 Minutes and Dateline.
