Camelot Illinois Statement Regarding Illinois Lottery Private Manager Decision

CHICAGO, Sept. 15 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ --Camelot Illinois today issued the following statement in regard to its bid for the Illinois Lottery private manager contract:

"When the Illinois Legislature decided to bring in a private manager to improve the Illinois Lottery, they envisioned selecting a manager with a strong track record of innovation and success and a strong history of social responsibility, a manager free from conflicts, and a manager fully capable of making the Lottery less regressive, in essence a fresh but proven approach. We strongly believe that our bid reflected these goals, both financially and conceptually.

"We are disappointed that the State chose to perpetuate the status quo, rather than enacting the real, meaningful change the Lottery needs and the legislature wanted.  We respectfully disagree with this decision and believe it does a disservice to the State, the taxpayers, and the people who play the Illinois Lottery."
