The first Arkansas Powerball Jackpot winner has already been crowned! Despite the fact that only 4% of all Powerbal ticket sales were made in Arkansas, after only two months being a member of the Multi State Lottery Association. There are still 4 states and one territory who have still never had a winner despite being members of the Powerball association for over 20 years.
The lucky winner has not yet come forward but will be pleased to learn that there is no state tax on the prize winnings in Arkansas and the winner can come away with a lump sum payment of $9,115,216 is the player decides to take the money all at once, rather then the 29 year installment plan for the full $25 million dollars.
The winning numbers selected were 3, 7, 23, 27 42 and the powerball 37.
