LITTLE ROCK, Ark. AP – Defining a state-run lottery may be as easy as defining hard-core pornography, a member of Arkansas’ highest court suggested Monday as justices considered whether to kick a proposed lottery off the November ballot.
Justices weighed the claims of the Arkansas Family Council, which says the lottery proposal should better define the games and could allow for the introduction of casinos in the state. The conservative group’s lawyer told judges that the proposed lottery amendment supported by Lt. Gov. Bill Halter is unclear and misleading to voters.
