Florida only has 2 mega millions jackpot wins. 4 years apart. We need another one. but maybe its a pattern an we ill not get one until every 4 years. so next time its 2022 it looks like.

Oregon has won powerball 5 times and no mega millions jackpot. I do not think north dakota has won either jackpot at all.-weshar75

Thanks Todd. If Stack47 wasn't so snarky with the response to the poll. I would have replied. but I figured why bother. No need to go into the weeds with some folks. I noticed that on the last drawing that California had the most 2nd tier winners with 8. Lets see what happens with the powerball. I don't think people will go quite has heavy with buying tickets unless it creeps up to the billion dollar mark.

A little info;

Lucky lottery states

Perhaps not too surprisingly, most Mega Millions winners from the past five years have hailed from states with larger populations.

New York, the fourth-largest state in the U.S., boasts the most Mega Millions winners with seven overall. California, the largest state, claims the second-most winners with six in total, while Illinois also claims four winners.

Interestingly, state population size hasn t always translated into Mega Millions success. Tex... [ More ]

It so happens I have a few tickets from SC. Their net payout rounds at $624 million. With two winning tickets that would make the sc net payout for one ticket $312 million... my magic jackpot number

I hope the winner will be from some place that starts with a T .

Some tourist from Transylvania will probably win...or Taiwan, Trinidad, Tobago, Tanzania, Thailand, etc.

Statistics show that most Mega Millions/Powerball jackpot winners come from large population areas such as California, Florida or New York. But the jackpot has been won in smaller states such as North Dakota, Nebraska, Vermont, etc. Im going to go with Virginia because I happen to be part of a lottery pool out of that state but it can truly happen in any state. Good Luck on Tuesday and Wednesday.
