No Powerball Winner; Jackpot Goes to Record $425M Nov 25th 2012, 07:21 Lottery officials say nobody has won the Powerball jackpot and the top prize will now increase to about $425 million for the next drawing, the largest jackpot ever for the game. Iowa Lottery spokeswoman Mary Neubauer said sales were strong over the holiday week for Saturday's drawing, which was estimated at $325 million before the numbers were picked. That was the fourth-largest jackpot in the game's history. AP Michael Arrington, left, buys a Powerball...

The previous top Powerball prize was $365 million, won in 2006 by ConAgra Foods Workers in Lincoln, Neb. The Powerball numbers for Saturday were 22-32-37-44-50, and the Powerball was 34.
