Sen. Ken Royall, D-Durham, introduced that bill. A state lottery referendum bill was approved by the Senate a year ago, but House members adjourned rather than debate the issue. Red wine said earlier during the session that he is more optimistic of the bill's chances for passage this term, as the legislature seeks new sources of revenue. While personal ly favoring the lottery, he thinks voters should decide the issue. Supporters of the lottery say that the state needs the estimate S200 million a lottery might provide, and could recoup some of the money r residents now spend on lotteries in other states. Opponents object to a state lot tery on religious grounds as well as concerns about public policy. Crit ics have argued the state shoudl not encourage gambling through a lot tery while discouraging other forms of betting. As a social issue, some opponents cite studies that indicate the lottery may encourage the poor to spend disproportiate amounts of their disposable income. As proposed, if approved by vot ers, the lottery bill calls for half the proceeds of the lottery to be used for a budget reserve or "rainy day" fund and half to go to maintenance and building projects.
