Last week’s Powerball lottery drawing was won by one lucky winner, meaning that the new totals have lowered. Check the report for the new amounts before you buy your ticket.
The current Powerball lottery website crawl, reflects the win, writing:
“There was one winner sold by the California Lottery for the last drawing's $60,000,000 grand prize.”
Where that is good news for one lucky winner it means that the totals for tonight’s game have been reduced to a measly $40 million.
Still $40 million is life changing money for you and everyone you care about. The Powerball lottery website warns players to play responsibly:
