For thirteen times since the Wednesday, June 20th, 2018 drawing, which saw one Powerball jackpot-winning ticket sold in Oregon match 5 main numbers and the Powerball, there has been no other jackpot winner.
As a result of the rollovers, tonight’s Powerball jackpot has swollen to a cash option value of about $133 million or $223 million in annuity value.
The last Michigan player to win the Powerball jackpot was Julie Leach of Three Rivers, who won the game’s $310.5 million jackpot on September 30, 2015.
Should a Michigan player win tonight’s $223 million jackpot, it would be the third-largest Powerball prize won in the state. On August 15, 2012, Donald Lawson, of Lapeer, won a $337 million Powerball jackpot, which holds the record for the largest Lottery prize ever won in Michigan.
Players still have plenty of time to purchase tickets for a chance to win the big jackpot. Players may buy $2 Powerball tickets for the drawing at Lottery retailers throughout the state and online at MichiganLottery.com until 9:45 p.m. tonight.
A “Power Play” option that multiplies non-jackpot prizes by up to 10 times to a maximum of $2 million may be added to any Powerball play for only $1.
