Powerball Jackpot To Reach $410 Million By Saturday Night, New Hampshire Lottery Says

CONCORD, NH — Since the Powerball jackpot has not been won since late May, it has grown to be another significant amount, according to New Hampshire Lottery officials.

Officials said Friday if anyone wins on Saturday, the prize will be around $410 million. The one-time, before-tax cash payout will be approximately $185 million. Estimated jackpot amounts are determined before taxes are withheld, according to officials.

“Excitement is building among our New Hampshire players as the Powerball jackpot gets closer and closer to half a billion dollars,” Charlie McIntyre, the executive director of New Hampshire Lottery, said. “With tickets available online through NH iLottery and at 1,200 retail locations statewide, it couldn’t be easier to purchase a Powerball ticket. It only takes one to win, and who knows, you could just be New Hampshire’s next multimillionaire.”

Powerball drawings are held on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday just before 11 p.m. The last jackpot was won by a California player who purchased a $204.5 million ticket.

Since 1964, the Lottery has contributed more than $3 billion to education funding in the state.
