Joseph DeHart of Robbinsville in Graham County said it was a blessing to win a $1 million Powerball prize.

DeHart’s $2 ticket matched the numbers on all five white balls in the Jan. 25 Powerball drawing, beating odds of 11.7 million. After required state and federal tax withholdings, he took home $707,500

“Blessed,” said DeHart on Friday as he and his wife claimed the prize at lottery headquarters in Raleigh. “We’re blessed.”

DeHart bought his lucky ticket at the Catamount Travel Center in Whittier.

The jackpot for Wednesday’s Powerball drawing is $70 million or $50.7 million cash.

how do you go about cashing in on an online ticket draw, say like for Cash 5, I have 6 draws, and if I get at least 2 numbers right on a ticket then how do I get it redeemed?NC Lottery
Hi Scott, if you win with a Online Play draw ticket we will send you an email notification and any wins under $600 will be automatically deposited into your wallet! If you won $600 or more, you will receive an email notification with instructions on how to claim. Good luck!
