Was there a Powerball winner on May 13, 2026?
No. No Powerball ticket matched all six numbers on May 13, 2026, so the $86M advertised jackpot rolled to an estimated $100M for the next drawing. 1 Match 5 ticket won $1 million in CA.
Why this draw matters
This draw also matters for tax planning because 1 second-tier Match 5 prize winner was reported. Even without a jackpot hit, a $1M or $2M prize can trigger federal withholding and possible state tax.

Net take-home comparison
| Cash lump sum | 30-year annuity | |
|---|---|---|
| Taxable gross payout | $186.6M | $416M |

Estimate assumptions
- California ticket-state tax uses the repository's 0.00% headline rate for tax year 2026.
- Federal tax uses 24% withholding plus a simplified 13 percentage-point top-bracket adjustment above the single threshold; it is not a full progressive tax return.
- Gross cash payout uses the provided official cash value.
Limitations and warnings
- Educational estimate only. It does not model deductions, gambling-loss offsets, trusts, estate planning, investment returns, or future law changes.
Winning numbers and Power Play multipliers come from NY State Open Data dataset d6yy-54nr, refreshed after each Powerball drawing. Per-draw jackpot, cash value, and prize-tier winner counts are scraped from the official powerball.com draw-result page. Federal and state tax assumptions are documented in /methodology. Powerball is a registered trademark of the Multi-State Lottery Association; this page is an independent educational record.
