Interested in how your town fares under the Lottery — take a look here: Lottery Workbook

This spreadsheet tells you how much your town gets from the lottery relative to the sales of lottery tickets in the community. It also calculates how much people win from those tickets and adds it into the amount of aid to give another angle to the notion of return on investment.

Feel free to comment on tweaks, mistakes, or observations from the data.
