CALIFORNIA, Md. – Yes, you read the title right, one billion dollars with a B. This is the third time that the Powerball has broken a billion dollars.
The first time was in January of 2016 worth $1.5 Billion, and three people across the country won the prize. The second time this happened was in November 2022 when it went over $2 Million and only one person from California had won it. Today will be the third time with a Billion dollar jackpot.
The drawing will be today July 19th, at 11:00 pm at the Florida Lottery Draw studio in Tallahassee.
There is some good luck through Maryland. In January 2021 a Maryland resident won a 7.5 million dollar jackpot. Even though the odds are 1:292.2, good luck to whoever wants to try.
