DES MOINES, Iowa — The latest on Wednesday's Powerball drawing (all times local):
10 p.m.
Lottery officials have announced the numbers drawn for Wednesday night's record $1.5 billion Powerball jackpot.
It could take several hours before officials know if any tickets sold since last Saturday's drawing matched all six winning numbers drawn, which were 4-8-19-27-34 and Powerball 10.
The odds of winning are 1 in 292.2 million.
Officials with the Multi-State Lottery Association, which runs the Powerball game, said they expected more than 85 percent of the possible number combinations would have been bought for the drawing.
If no tickets match all of the numbers drawn, lottery officials say the next jackpot could reach $2 billion.
Powerball is played in 44 states as well as the District of Columbia, U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.
The California Lottery said they had a jackpot winner in their state on Twitter:
We have a winner in California! A jackpot-winning ticket was sold in Chino Hills. We’re still awaiting results from other states.

A lottery official says the estimated Powerball jackpot remains at $1.5 billion, still the largest lottery jackpot in the world.
Kelly Cripe of the Texas Lottery says 85.8 percent of possible number combinations have been selected ahead of the drawing scheduled for Wednesday evening.
The odds of matching all six numbers to win the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.
The $1.5 billion prize would be paid in annual payments over 29 years or the winner could opt for a lump-sum payment of $930 million.
Cripe says if no one wins the jackpot Wednesday, the estimated jackpot for Saturday's drawing will increase to $2 billion, with a cash value of $1.24 billion.
