Mega Millions and Powerball Agree to Ticket-Selling Partnership
They are the two “marquee games” in American lotteries: Mega Millions and Powerball. Each lottery state currently has one, but not the other. However, the Mega Millions consortium and Multi-State Lottery Association (MUSL) have reached an agreement in principle to cross-sell Mega Millions and Powerball in all U.S. lottery jurisdictions.
The agreement means that lotteries from across the United States, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, will be able to choose to offer their lottery players both jackpot games via their respective retailers.
States that currently sell Powerball and other lottery products will have the opportunity to begin offering Mega Millions tickets to their players via authorized lottery retailers. As a result of this agreement, Mega Millions states will then be able to offer the Powerball game to complement their existing game mix. No firm date has been set for implementation, although it is hoped that it could be in early 2010. It is also hoped that this could be the beginning of several joint initiatives.
Mega Millions is currently played in 12 states, with a combined population of roughly 160 million. Powerball is currently available from 33 lotteries (31 states plus the District of Columbia and Virgin Islands) with a combined population of roughly 125 million.

Florida to join Powerball lottery in 2009
Powerball coming to Florida Jan 2009
TALLAHASSEE,Florida: The Florida Lottery announced today that it will join the Multi-State Lottery Association (MUSL) and add Powerball to its games starting in January 2009.. Though the Florida Lottery offers one of the strongest lotto games in the nation, it is the only state lottery that does not currently participate in a multi-state lottery game.
Powerball sales in Florida are expected to raise millions of additional dollars for education and increase commissions to the Lottery's 13,500 retailers, the majority of which are small, independently-owned businesses.
