$22M Lottery Jackpot Winner From Hudson County Set An NJ Record

HUDSON COUNTY, NJ — A lottery player matched all six numbers to win the $22 million Pick-6 jackpot Saturday, the New Jersey Lottery said. The person also set a record.

The winner, from Hudson County, ordered the ticket using the JackPocket digital courier.

The prize represented a record for winnings using a digital courier in New Jersey, the state said.

The winning numbers were 06, 07, 13, 15, 36, and 45. The player selected to accept the cash value of the prize, which is $10.4 million.

The jackpot was the game’s second largest this year. A player who bought a ticket at the Quick Mart in Jackson in January won $32 million, the state said.

“Congratulations to the winner,” New Jersey Lottery Executive Director James Carey said. “It’s exciting to see jackpots get so high, and I’m looking forward to meeting the winner!”

The Lottery has opened its “The Jackpot Was Hit!” promotion through Saturday. Players who purchase three plays on a single ticket will receive a free play on a separate ticket.

A lottery player who bought a ticket in Hudson County two weeks ago took home $1.2M, the NJ Lottery said at the time.
