How to Pick a Raffle Winner
Picking a raffle winner fairly is mostly about using a prepared list and applying one clear rule set consistently. The drawing itself should be the easy part.
Prepare the ticket list
Before the draw starts, confirm the full list of ticket holders or ticket entries. Do not build the list while people are watching if you can avoid it.
Explain the duplicate rule
If one person can have multiple tickets, duplicate entries are expected. If not, remove them before the draw.
Show the winner clearly
A projected instant pick or wheel reveal both work. Choose the one that fits the event.
