Did anyone win the powerball? – 03/26/22
The Powerball jackpot has jumped up to $195 million, and the old jackpot of $187 million was not claimed when no one won in the most recent drawing on Saturday, March 26. Although, 618,801 individuals were victors who won prizes ranging from $4 to $1 million!
Although there wasn’t a grand prize winner, one player from Colorado matched five of the white numbers to win $1 million. That player did not take advantage of the Power Play option, so they received $1 million instead of $2 million.
