PowerBall drawing Delayed
Saturday night’s Powerball numbers were supposed to have been drawn at 11 p.m., but the numbers were still pending by 11:30 p.m.
Powerball said in a statement that the delay was due to one participating lottery needing “additional time to complete required pre-draw procedures, which have been enacted to protect the security and integrity of the Powerball game.”
Every single ticket sold nationwide must be checked and verified against two different computer systems before the numbers are drawn, Powerball said.
