Virginia Lottery on pace for record sales

Published



Virginia Lottery sales are on pace to set a record for the fiscal year ending June 30 after rebounding from a stagnant first part of the year. Sales were up 10 percent over the previous year in January, February and March, thanks in part to the addition of a new game and large Mega Millions jackpots.

Lottery profits hit $430.2 million last year and are projected to reach $435.2 million this year. The profits will help fund K-12 education in the state.
