The outcome of the New Jersey Powerball lottery drawing on the specified date determines which ticket holders, if any, have won prizes based on matching the drawn numbers. This information includes the winning numbers (both white balls and the Powerball), details on the prize tiers, and the number of winners in each tier. Example information would include the specific numerical sequence drawn, such as “05-12-23-34-48 Powerball: 10” and associated prize values.
Lottery results serve a critical function for players, enabling them to determine whether their chosen numbers correspond with the winning combination. Access to this data is vital for claiming prizes and contributes to the transparency and integrity of the lottery system. Historical data, including past winning numbers, can also be of interest to some for statistical analysis or personal record-keeping. Official results validate the drawing outcome and provide a definitive record for all participants.
