The Powerball jackpot will top $620 million this week because no one won Saturday's drawing, but that may seem relatively small compared to the $1.6 billion Mega Millions drawing expected on Tuesday.
Hundreds of thousands of people are anxiously waiting for New Year's Day to see if they are a big lottery winner. The Minnesota State Lottery is holding its big raffle drawing again this year.
Someone in the St. Cloud area is holding a winning Powerball ticket worth $1 million. The Minnesota State Lottery says the ticket was bought for the Saturday night drawing at Coborn's on 8th Street North, in St. Cloud.
