The Powerball drawing on Wednesday, Oct. 7, 2026, concluded without a single grand prize winner. This rollover pushes the multi-state lottery jackpot even higher as players look ahead to the next drawing.
According to official game reports, the winning numbers for the Wednesday evening drawing were white balls 11, 13, 14, 21, and 65, alongside the red Powerball number 19. The drawing also featured a 2x Power Play multiplier.
Jackpot Reaches Estimated $485 Million
Because no ticket matched all six numbers to claim the grand prize, the jackpot rolled over. Before the Wednesday drawing, the estimated jackpot sat at $485 million, which included a cash value option of $199.8 million.
Following this latest rollover, lottery officials anticipate that ticket sales will surge before the next scheduled drawing on Saturday, Oct. 10. This surge could push the prize estimate even higher.
