If you meant a different drawing
If you were asking “where did they win the Powerball?” about a specific earlier date or jackpot (for example a smaller recent drawing), the location changes from draw to draw:
- On the official Powerball winners-by-state breakdown, the most recent prior jackpot before the Christmas Eve one (as of late 2025) shows two winning tickets sold in Missouri and Texas for the September 6, 2025 drawing.
- Historically, states like Indiana , Missouri , and Minnesota have had the highest counts of jackpot wins overall, but any given drawing can be won in any participating jurisdiction.
How to check a specific date
To find where “they” won for a particular drawing:
- Look up the draw date on the official Powerball results page, then view the prize breakdown, which lists any jackpot‑winning states and retailers.
- Cross‑check with a news article from that date, which usually names the city or at least the state where the winning ticket was sold.
