Two weeks from tonight on May 26th, we will announce a winner of a separate drawing for adults who have received at least their first dose of the vaccine. This announcement will occur each Wednesday for five weeks, and the winner each Wednesday will receive one million dollars.
The pool of names for the drawing will be derived from the Ohio Secretary of State’s publicly available voter registration database. Further, we will make available a webpage for people to sign up for the drawings if they are not in a database we are using.
The Ohio Department of Health will be the sponsoring agency for the drawings, and the Ohio Lottery will conduct them. The money will come from existing federal Coronavirus Relief Funds.
To be eligible to win, you must be at least 18 years of age or older on the day of the drawing. You must be an Ohio resident. And, you must be vaccinated before the drawing. We will have further, specific details tomorrow and in the days ahead.
I know that some may say, “DeWine, you’re crazy! This million-dollar drawing idea of yours is a waste of money.” But truly, the real waste at this point in the pandemic -- when the vaccine is readily available to anyone who wants it -- is a life lost to COVID-19.
Haha tax dollars at work. What a joke!
I think lotteries can drive weird behavior. Curious where this goes. Not sure if I want less people to get vaccinated to better my odds lol. This is probably the best lottery odds for a million $$ an Ohioan can enter (i didn't do the math or research just thumb in the wind)
It’s not safe now to take the masks off but the science says it will be in three weeks. Ok Mikey.
It would be safe now, if everyone had gotten vaccinated. Did you not hear the current hospital statistic? Almost all people currently hospitalized, have not been vaccinated. Get used to that news... we'll be hearing it from here on out.
Where's the $ coming from?
He literally said the Corona Virus Relief Fund which is federally funded.
