State Launches New Lottery Game

The state has launched its latest lottery game -- KENO. Governor Strickland pushed the state lottery commission to add the game, so schools could collect an extra $73 million every year in lottery profits. Nearly a thousand bars, restaurants, and bowling alleys are now offering the game across Ohio. Statehouse correspondent Bill Cohen went to one of them to see how the kick-off of Keno went.
