About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2026 draw, the latest on file, computed from Iowa Department of Natural Resources' published results (the agency did not publish the level that drew out). They are what happened in that draw, not a forecast. Under five tags a percentage carries a *, because one applicant either way swings it. A dash means the agency did not publish the number, and a date marked expected is last cycle's schedule rolled forward. How we compute these.
