States that allow gambling or operate an official state lottery use the proceeds either for the general fund or for specific purposes. Like a lot of states, Oklahoma restricts casino-style gambling operations to Native American reservations, and also allows betting on horse racing and certain types of games for the benefit of charity or nonprofit groups (such as church bingo fundraisers). Oklahoma also runs an official state lottery, although the state constitution once prohibited the formation of lotteries.
