CONNECTICUT, USA — Check your Powerball tickets this morning! One person who bought a lucky ticket in Connecticut won $2 million from Powerball.
The ticket was bought at Cumberland Farms, 1101 Post Road in Fairfield.
Wednesday night's Powerball drawing jackpot winning numbers were 12-32-56-67-68-26.
The next Powerball drawing is Saturday, Jan. 7, with an estimated jackpot of $325 million.
Separately, the Mega Millions jackpot is reaching other record-level amounts.
The $785 million jackpot for Tuesday night's drawing was the largest since someone in California won a record $2.04 billion Powerball prize on Nov. 8. It now rises to an estimated $940 million ahead of Friday's drawing.
The big prize is the sixth-largest jackpot in U.S. history. No one has matched all six of the game's numbers for more than two months. There have been 23 straight drawings without a big winner, which is little surprise considering the odds of a grand prize win are just one in 302.6 million.
