Legal Question in Consumer Law in Iowa
I run an online competative gaming site and I am trying to drum up ways to provide prize support for out tournaments. One option that was suggested was holding a raffle for people who donate to the website. For example every $5 dollars donated gives you a raffle ticket that you can put towards one of any number of items we might offer. Is this illegal and if so is there a legal way to do this?

You can't run an illegal raffle in the state of Iowa. That's pretty straightforward.
