Florida Lottery Jackpot Continues To Grow, Up To $32 Million

The Florida lottery has followed the example of several other states when it comes to new lottery games. One of their more popular new games is one in which tickets are sold for twenty dollars, then on a pre-chosen day, winners are announced.

While the new games are trendy, old reliable is still the top money maker in the state. This week, people will be standing in line to buy tickets for the Lotto game that has seen the jackpot rise to $32 million.

The $32 million jackpot will be the state's second largest this year. Back in February, the jackpot grew to $37 million before it was won. The next drawing for the $32 million will be Wednesday.

The figure that is announced is based on a payout over thirty years. Should the winner decide they want one lump sum, they would receive a little over half of the announced number.

Saturday was the last drawing for the Lotto game, but nobody matched all six winning numbers. The winning numbers were 13,23,31,33,35,and 38. 116 people matched five of the numbers. They will receive $4,781 each.
