After long delay, here are “last night’s” Powerball winning numbers

If you were waiting to see if you won last night’s Powerball drawing, like millions of other Americans, you went to bed without the numbers being called. The delay was because of a technical problem that extended well into Tuesday morning before the numbers were called.

Millions of New Jersey residents waited anxiously for the drawing that never came. On Tuesday, at 9am, the numbers were drawn after hours of delay.

The winning numbers were 10 – 33 – 41 – 47 – 56 and the Powerball was 10.

The Jackpot is was $2.04 billion. The drawing was the largest lottery jackpot in the world.


“Because of a technical problem tonight, we are unable to bring you the Powerball drawing at this time. As soon as we are unable to resolve the issue and conduct the drawing, it will be available on Powerball.com,” lottery host Laura Johnson said at around 11 pm Monday night.

“Currently, one participating lottery is still processing its sales and play data. Powerball requires all 48 participating lotteries to submit their sales and play data prior to the winning numbers being selected. Once Powerball receives the outstanding submission, the drawing can proceed. Powerball has stringent security requirements to protect the integrity of the game and remains committed to holding a drawing that gives all players a fair chance to win,” the multi-state lottery agency said last night.

At this time, the agency has not said whether or not a winning ticket was purchased. The New Jersey lottery commission has yet to announce local winners.
