Quick Scoop: Powerball winner – which state?

• The latest reported jackpot winner this year is from North Carolina.

• That ticket hit an estimated 209 million dollar jackpot in the January 21, 2026 drawing.

• As of the mid‑February drawings (including February 11, 2026), there have been no additional jackpot winners ; the February 11 jackpot rolled over at about 126 million dollars.

A bit of current context

• The February 11, 2026 drawing had winning numbers 6, 20, 33, 40, 48 and Powerball 5, but no ticket matched all six numbers , so the jackpot kept growing.

• There was at least one large secondary prize (a ticket in Arizona matched five numbers for 1 million dollars), but that is not a jackpot win.

Longer‑term “which state wins most?” angle

If your question is more general (which state tends to have the most Powerball jackpot winners over time rather than just the latest draw):

• Historically, Indiana has had the highest number of Powerball jackpot winners among all states, according to compiled stats tracking wins by state.

• Other states that frequently appear near the top include Missouri, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, largely due to long participation histories and strong ticket sales.
