Did Anyone Win the Record Powerball Jackpot in New Hampshire or Maine?
The Powerball jackpot heads further into record territory, as no one won in Saturday night's drawing.
The numbers drawn were: white balls 28 45 53 56 69 Powerball 20.
There were 16 winners of a one million dollar prize for matching the white balls. One ticket was sold in Massachusetts, but none in New Hampshire or Maine.
219 tickets matched four of the white balls and the Powerball, which are worth $50,000 each. Two tickets were sold in New Hampshire at The Brook in Seabrook and Circle K in Warner, according to New Hampshire Lottery spokeswoman Maura McCann.
McCann said that Saturday alone, lottery retailers sold $1.8 million worth of tickets.
"New Hampshire is number 1 in per capita ticket sales for all jurisdictions that sell the game," McCann said in an email.
The jackpot for Monday's jackpot will have an unprecedented annuity value of $1.9 billion (cash $929,100,000).
