“The Powerball lottery draw, set for Saturday night, got postponed. They need to finish some stuff before announcing the numbers. The organizers said they needed more time to do what’s needed. The jackpot’s around $1.3 billion.
They’re making sure everything’s right before revealing the numbers at 10:59 p.m. ET.”
