North Carolina LotteryNorth Carolina Lottery: N.C. Lottery could pick vendors today

North Carolina lottery commissioners meet Monday and could pick winning vendors to operate the state's scratch-off ticket games and online, or automated, numbers games.

Rivals Scientific Games and G-TECH Holdings each filed bids for both vendor contracts.
Each seven year contract could generate millions of dollars in revenue annually for the winner.

Four agencies filed bids Friday to land the advertising account for the North Carolina Education Lottery.

Lottery executive director Tom Shaheen wants to recommend an agency by February 13th to the North Carolina Lottery Commission, which will make the final decision.

    I saw the article on WRAL, and it's inaccurate. GTech does not manufacture instant tickets. They're thinking of Oberthur, a seperate company.

      It's being reported all over the state that G-Tech has won both contracts.They may now have the scratch off ticket capabilities due to their recent merger with the Italian company Lottomatica.
