Attorney General Rejects Lottery Contract
Like thousands of state contracts every year, the Professional Management Agreement with Camelot Global Services is subject to review for “form and legality.” But Attorney General Kathleen Kane says it failed that test. She says it’s in violation of both the law and the state constitution.
Kane addressed the media for about five minutes this afternoon. Listen to her entire statement by clicking below: KaneLottery

A recent Franklin & Marshall College Poll found that 64% of Pennsylvanians oppose the move.
