About the Delaware Lottery
Governor at the time, Sherman W. Tribbit, approved the act passed by the state's General Assembly to create the Delaware Lottery on May 31, 1974.
The very first tickets went on sale in 1975, with the first instant game launching in February 1976. Lotto America tickets joined the portfolio in 1991, with Powerball following in 1992.
The Delaware Lottery then introduced the Video Lottery system in 1994, with Multi-Win Lotto being introduced in 2005. Hot Lotto tickets went on sale in 2008, and the state joined Mega Millions early in 2010.
In an innovative move, the Delaware Lottery introduced table games in 2010 and 2013 respectively, setting a precedent by offering iGaming to players and allowing residents to play casino games online.
Lottery revenue is earmarked for the state's General Fund that provides funding for several different services, including public safety, health, and social and family services. All of the money raised helps make the state a favorable one to live in, with nearly $5.4 billion being raised for the state since 1975. Players must be 18 years old or older to play Delaware Lottery games.
