It’s back to work for Georgians after a $435 million Powerball jackpot yielded no winners in the state overnight.
There was only one winner in Indiana, according to the Powerball website. One ticket in New Jersey matched five numbers with Power Play to win $2 million. Tickets sold in Kansas, Massachusetts, New York and Texas matched five numbers to win $1 million.
The winning numbers were 52, 10, 61, 28, 13 with 2 as the Powerball.

Despite the bout of bad luck for locals, the Powerball lured people to buy lottery tickets and one Girl Scout to set up shop outside a popular Haralson County store.
Robinson and Sons in Tallapoosa is a popular place to buy lottery tickets near the Georgia-Alabama state line.
“People said, ‘Well, I’ll buy all your cookies once I win the lottery,’” Madison Denman told Channel 2 Action News.
She broke a record for Girl Scout cookies sold, the television station reported.
The odds of winning Powerball are about 1 in 292,201,338, according to lottery officials.
But it’s not impossible.
After rolling over 19 times, a history-making $1.6 billion Powerball jackpot finally found homes with winners in California, Florida and Tennessee last January.
