Georgia Lottery Winners Shine as Powerball Jackpot Climbs
North Georgia is buzzing with lottery excitement! Leading the headlines is a $1 million Powerball win. The lucky ticket was sold at a Publix in Duluth, matching all five white-ball numbers in last Saturday’s draw. The winner hasn’t claimed their prize yet, so suspense is still in the air.
But that’s far from the only jackpot story. Georgia players are celebrating wins big and small:
-
A Jonesboro player scored $50,000 through the Georgia Lottery mobile app.
-
Someone in Fayetteville pocketed $13,929.
-
Over in Brookhaven, a lucky resident hit the $10,000 top prize in the Georgia FIVE evening draw last Friday.
Lottery officials remind winners to sign their tickets and confirm their prizes through official channels—a simple step that ensures your winnings are safe.
Meanwhile, the Powerball jackpot keeps climbing. With no grand prize winners in Monday’s draw, the jackpot is now estimated at $689 million for the next drawing, up from $654 million. This follows a stretch with no outright winners since September.
Powerball has a history of jaw-dropping prizes. The top six jackpots have all exceeded $1 billion, including the record-setting $2.04 billion win in California in November 2022. While this latest draw didn’t create a new billionaire, one Illinois ticket still bagged $1 million by matching five white balls.
For those feeling lucky, mark your calendars: Powerball draws happen every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET. Who knows—maybe the next big winner is you!
