Private Group Implements Lottery; All Voters are Eligible; The Lucky Winner gets $25,000

A recent Los Angeles School Board runoff election in one district had an usual feature: a private group had said every voter who voted in that particular race would have his or her name entered into a lottery, and the winner would get $25,000. This Los Angeles Times story describes the event. The initial winner is a woman who declined the money, so the lottery organizers then drew a second name. Thanks to Rick Hasen for the link.
