RAYMOND, N.H. — Powerball officials say one ticket sold in New Hampshire matches all six numbers in the Powerball drawing worth $487 million.

The winning numbers for the Powerball are 11-17-21-23-32 and the Powerball number is 5.

The winning 487-million dollar ticket was sold at this Raymond New Hampshire Hannaford store, and as reported on the FOX25 News at 10, no one has claimed the prize yet.

The numbers were drawn Saturday night for the nation's eighth-largest lottery jackpot. There had not been a winner since May 7, when a family from New Jersey won a $429.6 million jackpot.

In a huge night for lotto players, other winners include $1 million winner in Littleton, a $100,000 winner in Albany, and a $50,000 winner in Nashua.

“I was just saying to a friend of mine, nobody in New Hampshire ever wins,” said Pauline Berube.

In New Hampshire, there’s a year grace period to claim a lottery prize.

Tickets are sold in 44 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
