I'll get a ticket for it myself. I wonder why the site doesn't push more for tax-free earnings on state sponsored lottery games.

I didn't know it had three one million dollar prizes. The ads and the website make it appear there is only one prize. Only this site made it clear. Odds of winning a million would be just above 100k then.

I think I might go for it. I can lose twenty times on MM, or once on WA's raffle. Decisions decisions...

These raffles are great for people who want to win a million dollars but they are not designed for people who want to win $2.00.

There is nothing underhanded or strange about the raffles. In fact, they exactly like the world's most popular game, El Gordo.
