Illinois introduced a new version of its lottery online on November 15th. The state was the first to introduce an online lottery, but it restricted its sales to draw tickets only. Georgia and Michigan introduced instant games three years later. As of last month, there were seven states with full-featured online lotteries and another seven with draw sales only, including Illinois.
