Lightning has struck twice in the Powerball lottery. The game has been won twice in two weeks. Check the story below to see what this weeks new jackpot total is as well has an update on the big winners.
The new total for this Wednesday's drawing has reached a depressing $40 million, with an estimated cash value of $23 mil.
It must be lotto sweeps seasons, because there has been two winners in as many weeks. The current crawl on the official Powerball website reads:
“There was one winner sold by the California Lottery for the last drawing's $60,000,000 grand prize.”
There was a also a winning ticket sold for last week's jackpot in California. Both winners have yet to come forward. The official Powerball site is reporting on expiration dates on the series.
“The Universe is decaying and nothing lasts forever. Ticket expiration periods vary from state to state--from 90 days to one year. They may also change from time to time. The back of your ticket will often give the expiration period for your state. If it is not on the back of your ticket, you might check with your state lottery by using the map. For obvious reasons, we don't want to give you wrong information about the time frame for cashing tickets with your lottery. In rare cases, your elected officials will change the expiration period (sometimes they run out of other stuff to vote on). They may shorten it even though you may find an old brochure or old ticket stock with a longer claim period. Often the lottery will honor your ticket in such a case, but if you plan to wait longer than 90 days to claim a big prize, you might just call up the lottery or go to the online site and double check on the expiration period.”
