Ga Lottery is a fraud. They are literally controlling the balls. No way a digit should be out of any position past 30 days not even 10. They are doing a lot of two digit repeats from the previous draw and rotating the same 4 digits to lead off in 1st position. By the way GLC is now funding the Hope Scholarship 100 percent.

Ga lottery is paying 100 percent of the Hope Scholarship now. So expect these type of drawings and low payouts from now on. All most four months with no triple. Even the smallest states have gotten a quad this year. These two digit repeats are becoming the norm. They are becoming a corporate fraud. There is a site where you can play all 50 states if you are not winning in Ga.

Georgia Team Players Post Pic 4"S HereReply
Right Tanesha GA Lottery is full of ish. So I called regarding the number drawn yesterday and they said there was technical difficulties and the auditor certified 8395 when it was clearly 6395. I think that will do me. There is no integrity in the GA lottery. They won't be satisfied until they have no players. It's sad because the HOPE scholarship will suffer.
