Iowa Lottery's Mistaken Numbers Result in Unexpected Winners

The Iowa Lottery accidentally published the wrong winning numbers for Monday's Powerball draw due to human error. Some participants claimed their winnings, mistakenly believing they had won up to $200. The lottery stated that the temporary 'winners' who presented their tickets during the time the wrong numbers were live would be allowed to keep their money. The corrected numbers were later published, and it is unclear how many prize-winning tickets were affected by the mistake.
