State Rep. Barb Farrah, a Democrat from Southgate, loses her job in the House of Representatives at the end of this year because of term limits.

After winning $2 million in the Michigan Lottery, she faces a lot less pressure to find a new gig.

Farrah won the prize during Friday's basketball game between the Detroit Pistons and the Milwaukee Bucks at The Palace of Auburn Hills. She randomly was selected from a pool of five finalists.

"This comes at a handy time," said Farrah, who is in her sixth and final year in the House. "I haven't made a lot of decisions about what comes next."
