The lottery funds go into the General Fund. From this, it is all spread out. In all, education really doesn't get much of the pot. It goes to other bureaucratic entities, like Parks and Wildlife. That's why we had a cigarette tax increase. I thought the lotto funds went straight to Education because that's their favorite thing to boast, but quite the opposite.
