4 | or is assigned a number for a chance at a prize with the winner |
5 | determined by [a] random drawing to take place on the eligible |
6 | organization's premises [during the same operating day]. The |
7 | term includes games commonly known as "member sign-in lotteries" |

9 | construed to prohibit the carrying over of a jackpot where the |
10 | winning number has not been entered in the game on a particular |
11 | operating day. Daily drawing winners may be determined with the |
12 | aid of a passive selection device or reference to drawings |
