The Powerball® jackpot has been won in Oregon! A single ticket sold in Oregon matched all six numbers drawn to win a jackpot worth $1.326 billion. The jackpot has a cash value of $621 million.
The winning numbers were white balls 22, 27, 44, 52, 69 and red Powerball 9. The Power Play® multiplier was 3X. Saturday’s Powerball drawing was delayed as one lottery needed additional time to complete the required pre-draw procedures. As soon as the procedures were completed, the drawing was held at 2:29 a.m. ET on Sunday at the Florida Lottery draw studio and live streamed on Powerball.com.
Final ticket sales pushed the jackpot beyond its earlier estimate of $1.3 billion to $1.326 billion at the time of the drawing, making it the fourth largest in the Powerball game and eighth largest among U.S. lottery jackpot games.
"On behalf of Powerball, I’d like to congratulate the winner of this $1.326 billion jackpot. Winning the Powerball is not just about hitting the jackpot, it's about the power to make dreams a reality and to create positive change in the world,” said Drew Svitko, Powerball Product Group Chair and Pennsylvania Lottery Executive Director. “Lottery games, like Powerball, generate proceeds that are used to do so much good work in local communities across the country. Thank you to our players and retailers for helping us make a lasting impact from this jackpot run.”
The lucky ticket holder will have the choice between an annuitized prize of $1.326 billion or a lump sum payment of $621 million. Both prize options are before taxes. If the winner selects the annuity option, they will receive one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments that increase by 5-percent each year.
Even though the jackpot was won by a single ticket, participating lotteries are reminding players to check their tickets for one of the nine ways to win. Nationwide, the Powerball drawing produced more than 4.5 million winning tickets, including seven tickets that matched all five white balls to win $1 million prizes. The $1 million-winning tickets were sold in Arizona, Delaware, Florida, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan and Wyoming. There were also 81 tickets that won $50,000 prizes, and 26 tickets that won $150,000 prizes. Note: In California, prize payout amounts are pari-mutuel and determined by sales and the number of winners.
This was the second time the Powerball jackpot has been hit this year. The jackpot was previously won on New Year’s Day in Michigan by a ticket that won a $842.4 million jackpot.
Powerball tickets are $2 per play. Tickets are sold in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
