<p class="MsoNormal">I agree. This is overly complicated and unnecessary. Why use paper tickets and have them be purchased? Is this 1980? Why not just have the applicant elect electronically through the applicant portal whether or not they wat to participate
in the prioritization draw. Only certain authorized applicant representative have access to the portal so this should be both efficient and secure. I also don’t think we need a live draw and can just use some recognized third party provider to conduct the
draw and then announce the results.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Furthermore, and further to what Rubens posted below, purchasing tickets could be deemed an illegal lottery under the laws of various US states and other countries. Generally, the elements of an illegal lottery are: chance, prize, and
consideration, all of which would be present here.<o:p></o:p></p>
