The state lottery raised about $67 million for education in 2011, according to the Oklahoma Policy Institute.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Oklahoma\u2019s cut of gaming revenues and tobacco taxes increased last year, while proceeds from the state lottery slid slightly, reports<\/a> the Oklahoma Policy Institute in a series of new fact sheets.<\/p>\n

For the most part, lottery sales have remained remarkably consistent, regardless of the up and downs of the economy, the addition of new games, and growing competition from tribal casinos and the new state lottery in Arkansas.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
