Still Awaiting National Results to Find Out if Any Other States or Jurisdictions Won Part of $1.586 Billion
January 13, 2016 - SACRAMENTO – One California Lottery player is part of history tonight as they will take away at least some of the record-breaking $1.586 billion Powerball jackpot. The lucky ticket was purchased at the 7-
Eleven located at 4092 Chino Hills Parkway in Chino Hills (San Bernardino County).The ticket matched the winning numbers 04-08-19-27-34 and Powerball number 10 for tonight’s draw, which took place moments ago in Tallahassee, Florida.
We do not know if this winning player will have to split the $1.586 billion with winners in other states and jurisdictions. It will be a couple hours or even longer before we know if anyone in the 43 other states where Powerball is played (as well as the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands) has won part of the record $1.586 billion jackpot. It depends on whether any of the other jurisdictions experience technical difficulties. We will let everyone know the moment we receive word!
In addition, 12 tickets sold throughout California matched five of six numbers 04-08-19-27-34 missing the Powerball number 10 in tonight’s draw. We will know the amounts for those tickets in a couple of hours.

And remember, as jackpots rise, the California Lottery would like to remind players that gambling should be fun. Borrowing money to play, spending above a person’s budget or using money intended for other purposes can ultimately lead to significant problems for players and their families. If a player recognizes that they have a gambling problem or if someone knows of someone who may have a problem, the Lottery recommends calling the Problem Gambling Help Line at 1-800-GAMBLER.
The California Lottery is a $5.5 billion enterprise based in Sacramento. It is one of the few state agencies that is a revenue generator, not accepting taxpayer dollars from the State’s General Fund. Its mission is to provide supplemental funding to California schools while simultaneously supporting local communities. In FY 2014-15, the Lottery created 100 new millionaires. Ninety-five cents of every dollar spent by our players goes back to local communities in the form of contributions to public schools and colleges, prizes and retail compensation. The California Lottery urges its customers to play responsibly and within their budgets. If you feel you have a gambling problem, or know someone who does, you can get help at 1-800-GAMBLER.
