For the second time this week, a multi-million dollar winning lottery ticket has been sold in Southern California. Although no one won the $750 million Powerball jackpot on Saturday, March 23, 2024.

The winning numbers for Saturday, March 23rd were 6, 23, 25, 34, 51, and the Powerball number was 3.

Florida: Match 5 + Power Play – $2 million
Maryland, Minnesota, Virginia: Match 5 – $1 million each
Texas: 2 x Match 5 – $1 million each
The last Powerball jackpot winner emerged on January 1, as the world celebrated the arrival of a fresh year, fate smiled upon a ticket holder in the heart of Michigan. That player ticket’s magic combination: 3, 7, 21, 42, 56, with the golden Powerball number 16. This jackpot was the fifth largest in Powerball’s storied existence.
