New York Lottery History

Lottery games have always formed an important part of life in New York and Lottery games have helped fund the building and upkeep of the famous city.

In fact parts of New York City Hall have been built using Lottery funds. On the 8th of November 1966, New Yorkers voted in a referendum that passed with a 60% majority in favour of having a lottery.

The New York Lottery is administered by the State Government. All wins on the Lottery are subject to New York taxes and if you happen to live in the borough of Yonkers and New York City then you will also be subject to local income taxes.
