Powerball Winning Numbers for Nov. 4, 2026: 15-34-41-53-56, Powerball 21, $835 Million Jackpot

Powerball rolls past $835 million with no jackpot winner Wednesday, but a Florida ticket already banked $1 million

Wednesday night’s Powerball drawing came and went without a grand-prize winner, leaving an $835 million jackpot to climb higher for Saturday’s drawing. The numbers drawn Nov. 4, 2026, were 15-34-41-53-56 with a Powerball of 21 and a Power Play multiplier of 2x, tcpalm.com reported. No ticket matched all six, so the prize rolls again.

That miss matters because the jackpot has now rolled 35 times since a player in Quincy, Illinois, won $1.04 billion on Aug. 12, 2026. The game reset to $20 million on Aug. 15, and it has climbed steadily ever since — from $793 million on Monday to $835 million Wednesday, with a cash option that grew from $339.9 million to $357.9 million. Both tcpalm.com and staugustine.com report the same figures.

A jackpot that keeps climbing

The Illinois winner took the cash option of $450.0 million and elected to remain anonymous, according to the Illinois Lottery, and the ticket was sold at Hy-Vee Fast and Fresh, 310 N. 36th St., Quincy, which received a $500,000 bonus commission. Since then, the advertised jackpot has marched upward drawing by drawing — $760 million on Halloween, $793 million Monday, $835 million Wednesday — because nobody has hit the full combination.

Players still have a 1 in 292.2 million chance of matching all six numbers, whether the jackpot sits at $20 million or $2 billion, according to Powerball.com. The next drawing is Saturday, Nov. 7, at 11 p.m. ET, filmed in Tallahassee.

The Florida winner who already cashed in

While Wednesday’s drawing produced no jackpot winner, a ticketholder in the Sunshine State already turned a $2 ticket into $1 million just over a week earlier. On Monday, Oct. 26, the winning numbers were 18-26-49-50-54 with a Powerball of 1 and a Power Play of 3x. A Florida ticket matched five numbers, sharing the $1 million prize with a ticket purchased in Georgia.

State lottery records show the Florida winner bought the ticket at Racetrac, 2335 Cleveland Ave., Fort Myers, lives in Cape Coral, and has already claimed the cash. As of Wednesday, Nov. 4, the prize remained unclaimed on the Florida Lottery site’s public records, though the Cape Coral resident’s claim is recorded in state files.

Monday’s Nov. 2 drawing also paid out $1 million — to a ticket holder in Delaware, who matched five numbers on 7-23-29-64-66 with a Powerball of 23 and a Power Play of 4x.

What Florida winners face after the confetti

“Florida law mandates that the Florida Lottery provide records containing information such as the winner’s name, city of residence; game won, date won, and amount won to any third party who requests the information.”

The site adds that names of winners claiming prizes of $250,000 or greater are temporarily exempt from public disclosure for 90 days from the date the prize is claimed, unless the winner waives that protection. That contrasts with the Illinois billionaire, who remained anonymous under that state’s rules. Florida prizes must be claimed within 180 days of the drawing, and the single-payment cash option must be claimed within the first 60 days.

The math that never changes

Each $2 play carries the same 1 in 292.2 million odds against the jackpot, and prizes range from $2 up to whatever the jackpot happens to be that night. Wednesday’s rollover simply means the Saturday prize will be larger than $835 million — and the drawing will again be held at 11 p.m. ET in Tallahassee, including holidays.

The Illinois winner walked away with $450 million in cash and no public name attached. The Florida millionaire from Cape Coral took the cash too, but under Florida law the name and city are public record.
