I cannot find my W-2G for my lottery winnings from a scrathoff. What should I do?

Call your state lottery commission and ask them to send you a duplicate W-2G. If you can't get another copy, you probably know the amount that you won. Enter it in TurboTax as gambling winnings that were not reported on a W-2G. It looks the same on the tax return, whether or not you have a W-2G. The IRS is basically concerned that you report the income.
