Elusive Jackpots

Greetings, Lotterytrend fans. Romulun Harris here. Last night on January 30, 2023, as February approached, the jackpots of Lotto Texas and Powerball maintained their increasing momentum. Lotto Texas’s jackpot is now at $36.75 million and Powerball is at $653 million. Lotto Texas’s jackpot has been holding on since September 19, 2022-that’s over four months! Powerball’s jackpot has been going strong as well since November 9, 2022. Wow! From $20 million to $653 million in less than three months! I guess it had something to do with that won jackpot worth around $2 billion from November 7, 2022.  Anyway, on with the details.
