West Virginia lottery measure seen passing in 1974 session
Supporters of a constitutional amendment to allow a state lottery expect approval in 1974. Del. Gust Brenda Jr. and Del. Charles Donley argue the plan would raise revenue for education and the elderly and would stop West Virginians from buying Pennsylvania or Ohio tickets. They estimate a WV lottery could bring substantial annual revenue and stress voluntary participation rather than a regressive tax.
