When someone in the other Powerball states wins the jackpot, does all the money from Powerball tickets purchased in Louisiana go to the winning state?
No. Each state participating in Powerball contributes a percentage to funding the jackpot based on its sales. As in all other games, the Louisiana Lottery Corporation transfers to the state treasury 35 percent of all sales of Powerball tickets at Louisiana Lottery retailer outlets no matter where the top prize is won.
