N.J. tickets win $1M in Mega Millions, Powerball

Tickets sold in New Jersey won $1 million in both the Mega Millions and Powerball games this weekend, while a Delaware County ticket won that amount in a Millionaire Raffle drawing.

In Friday's Mega Millions drawing, a New Jersey ticket matched all five white balls (8, 19, 20, 55 and 73) but missed the Mega Ball of 5 to claim the $1 million second-tier prize.

A ticket sold in Indiana won the $540 million jackpot, the third largest in the game's history. Nine other tickets also won $1 million each.

Mega Millions' jackpot now resets to $15 million for the annuity, or $10 million cash, for Tuesday's drawing.

The top prize for Powerball, however, is on the rise after no one won hit the jackpot Saturday but three tickets, including one from New Jersey, won $1 million each.

Those tickets matched the five white balls (10, 28, 32, 61 and 64) but missed the Powerball of 12, falling short of the $288 million jackpot.

The jackpot for Wednesday's game now rises to $311 million, or $221.4 million for the cash option.

The Mega Millions winner was sold in Rutherford, Bergen County, while the winning Powerball ticket was purchased in Union City, Hudson County.

And in the Pennsylvania Lottery's most recent Millionaire Raffle game, a ticket sold in Delaware County was one of the four tickets that won the top prize of $1 million each.

That ticket was purchased at Conley's Market, located at 200 Fairview Road in Woodlyn, lottery officials said.

The four winning ticket numbers were 00096061, 00147664, 00204958 and 00350091.

The other winners were sold in Emporium, Cameron County; Lamar, Clinton County; and Chambersburg, Franklin County.

In other lottery news, a ticket sold in Philadelphia won $325,000 in a weekend Pennsylvania Cash 5 drawing.

The ticket, purchased at the BP located at 601 W. Girard Ave., matched all five numbers in Saturday's game: 2, 14, 18, 20 and 41.
