Delay in Mega Millions results

December 19, 2020 Posted by NC Lottery at 11:43 AM

Friday’s Mega Millions drawing was conducted and winning numbers drawn. The winning numbers are 7-15-25-51-60-5.

While the drawing is complete, state lotteries that are part of the Mega Millions game must complete all checks and balances for the game before prizes anywhere can be paid and the jackpot amount can be updated.

There is a delay in completing those final steps and that has delayed the posting of results and the payment of prizes. 

We apologize for the delay and appreciate your patience until all checks and balances are completed.

If you have a winning ticket, you will be able to collect your prize. Please sign the back of the ticket and keep it secure.

I would like to know why the lottery scratch off machines don't except South Carolina drivers license. It says it don't recognize the license??NC Lottery
Hi Kwane, a South Carolina driver's license should work. We have a few suggestions to try and solve this. First, double check that you are scanning a driver's license, and not a state ID. Next, ensure that you are scanning the larger barcode on the back of your license. If that does not solve the issue, we always recommend finding the manager at that retail location and asking them for help.

Never taken this long for results, even when the jackpot was over a billion. I think with the news of the cyber attack hitting government, the lotteries in the states are checking there systems.
