New Jersey Lottery ticket wins $1 million in
Monday's drawing when Powerball jackpot
stood at $41M
New Jersey's lucky lottery player won $1 million in Monday night's Powerball drawing. No anyone knows where the winning ticket was sold in the Garden State.
In addition to the New Jersey ticket, one ticket was also sold in Spring Valley, California. California's lucky player won $222,615 by matching all five white balls. California bases its prizes on actual tickets sold in the state, whereas other states award $1 million as a second-tier prize.
According to the Powerball website, if no one matched all six numbers in the Wednesday night drawing, then the grand prize will increase to $41 million with a cash option of $21.2 million.
The jackpot was last won on July 19 when a California lucky player won the $1.08 billion jackpot - the third largest Powerball ever.
According to the Mega Millions website, the Mega Millions jackpot is at $820 million for Tuesday's drawing with a cash option of $422 million.
