Two Wisconsin Powerball Tickets Win $50,000 Each

Two Wisconsin lottery players are celebrating after winning $50,000 apiece in the Powerball drawing on Wednesday, August 12, 2026.

The lucky tickets were sold in Oconomowoc and Holmen, even though the night’s massive jackpot went to a player in Illinois.

Both Wisconsin tickets matched four of the five white balls—4, 26, 66 and 67—along with the red Powerball 9, earning each ticket a $50,000 prize.
