July 4, 2026 Powerball Results: $1M Winner in California, Jackpot Rolls On

The jackpot survived, but the draw still produced a major winner: a $1M Match 5 ticket in California.

Last updated:

The draw's strongest angle is the non-jackpot winner in California who hit Match 5. That prize does not end the jackpot run, but it still creates a real tax-planning problem.

The winning numbers were 17, 38, 46, 50, 69 and Powerball 20, with Power Play 2x. The white balls totaled 220, with an odd/even split of 2/3 and a low/high split of 1/4.

With no grand-prize winner, the jackpot is now set to roll to $416M for Monday, Jul 6, with a cash value around $186.6M.

While the jackpot remains elusive, it was still a life-changing night for a player in California who hit Match 5 for $1M.
