  I hope they don't go computerized.I don't think that the people in NC would trust the drawings as much as with the balls.The selection ofTom Shaheen makes me think that he will push for the computerized draws.

  NC probably chose him due to the low cost measures he used in other states to maximize the return to those states.They would be shooting themselves in the foot if they turn players off by not using the ball draws.

  I hope N.C. residents are not leaving this to chance.  They should be contacting the Governor's office and the office of the lottery on a daily basis, demanding that the lottery use real lottery ball drawings.

  I hope that NC goes to all ball machines on my vote, not computerized. Ball machines make things more fair.

  NY King Kong Millions was drawn by computer. I hope NY doesn't try that again except for Quick Draw, which is played every four minutes.
