NH Sen. Judd Gregg Wins Powerball 2nd Prize (CBS4) WASHINGTON New Hampshire Senator Judd Gregg is a bit richer today. He is one of 49 people who won a second place prize in Wednesday night's Powerball drawing. Gregg matched 5 of the winning numbers, but missed the Powerball. His ticket is worth $853,492. Senator Gregg bought the ticket in Washington, DC at a gas station with a Dunkin Donuts. There was just one winner of the $340 million Powerball jackpot. That winning ticket was sold in Oregon. The winning numbers were 7, 21, 43, 44, and 49. The powerball was 29. The odds of hitting all 6 were 1 in 146 million. The $340 million jackpot is the largest in Powerball history and the second-biggest lottery jackpot in U.S. history. The Powerball jackpot had been snowballing since mid-August, with 20 straight drawings in which no one won the grand prize. (© 2005 CBS Worldwide Inc. All Rights Reserved.
