Minnesota Lottery is the official lottery organization for the US state of Minnesota. In November 1988, 57% of the voters in Minnesota supported the constitutional amendment of authorizing a state lottery. The Minnesota Legislation passed statute law in May 1989 for beginning a lottery and divided the profits equally between the Greater Minnesota Corporation and the Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund. On 17th April, 1990, Minnesota Lottery began selling current tickets and in 1990 May, the Legislature altered the method of distributing the earnings of the Minnesota Lottery of giving 25% to the Greater Minnesota Corporation, 35% to the Infrastructure Development Fund and 40% to the trust fund.
