Lottery implements changes

Sales have slipped since the coronavirus pandemic forced the closure of many lotto retailers. It has meant temporary changes to jackpot amounts which reset to $20 million, instead of $40 million, each time they are hit.

Also, jackpots now increase each drawing based on sales and interest rates, with no minimum increase from drawing to drawing.
