Could you use an extra $535 million? Powerball drawing increases
The Powerball jackpot rolled over a 19th time and increased to $535 million.
For just $2, the $535 million Powerball jackpot could be yours.
The payout increased after no one won the $510 million amount Wednesday, Georgia Lottery officials said. The jackpot has rolled over 19 times since June 14.
The last winning ticket was June 10 in California for $447.8 million.
The winning numbers will be drawn Saturday just before 11 p.m. on Channel 2 Action News.
Winners have two payout options: the prize can be paid over 29 years in 30 graduated payments or the winner can get a lump sum of $340 million.
All proceeds from the Georgia Lottery go toward the HOPE Scholarship program and Georgia’s pre-K program.
