If the latter, will the hand be a non-partisan third party hand or the hand of a principal in the raffle.

If a hand is used, will the owner of the hand be blindfolded for the drawing?

Will there be third party certification that all slot holders have an equal chance of winning regardless of the methodology employed?

Is this type of raffle legal in the state where it is being conducted?

If the prize is lost in transit by the post office after the winner has been determined, what percentage of the ticket revenue will the winner receive in lieu of the prize? 100%; 50% or what.
Frank- I suggest you not play and not worry about it.
