One lottery ticket holder matched the winning Powerball numbers on Nov. 29, 2014, winning the $90 million multi-state jackpot.
The winning ticket was purchased in Washington state, according to Lottery officials.
The Powerball winning numbers drawn for Saturday, Nov. 29 were 13, 24, 30, 42, and 48, with Powerball number 27. The Power Play number was 2.
In addition to the jackpot winner, two ticket holders in the multi-state lottery game matched 5 numbers, which paid off $1 million each. Those tickets were purchased in California and Virginia.
Also, two ticket holders matched 5 numbers, with Power Play, winning $2 million each. Those tickets were sold in New Mexico and Rhode Island.
The next Powerball drawing is Dec. 3. The jackpot will the starting amount of $40 million.
The other big multi-state jackpot game, Mega Millions, has its next drawing on Dec. 2, with a jackpot of $70 million. The last Mega Millions jackpot winner was a ticket holder in New York who won $321 million on Nov. 4.
That Power Play makes a huge difference when you match 5 + 0 especially knowing that they'll tax that win to the bone. PB is becoming a winners game and I'm hoping they don't change it. MM isn't churning out millionaires every week
I knew it was fixed ........
Washington always wins ..........
DANG IT! You beat me to it. LOL.
I think we should ban Washington from playing Powerball!
I see the usual ones are being asses. I have no problem with a state that gets its first jackpot win.
That was uncalled for.
Nobody mentioned you.
Hey, I'm happy it wasn't from California or Florida.
But congratulations to the winner, and I hope they invest it wisely, and be careful with their spending (i.e. not go hog-wild and buy a lear jet or something ridiculous like that).
Interesting statement coming from you...in the past you insisted it was 'always' California and when directed to the winners galleries on the PB and MM website you claimed they were lies.
Consistency is not your forte.
Congratulation to the winner/s.........
Good luck lol, seems like that much money might be a headache.
i swear, Todd needs to do a wee bit of house cleaning and get rid of some of these dust bunnies
