ALBUQUERQUE – The New Mexico Lottery is reminding players that Lottery tickets are for ages 18 and older. For those who plan to give Lottery tickets as gifts, please gift responsibly.

As part of our commitment, we participate in the National Council on Problem Gambling’s Gift Responsibly Campaign.”
