Illinois Wins Record $3M Lottery Jackpot | Lincoln News
Description
A record-breaking $3 million lottery jackpot has been claimed in Illinois — the largest prize in state history and the biggest of 2024. The winning ticket, bought at a Circle K in Springfield, offers the winner a choice: take $3 million upfront or $5 million over 20 years. This was the 39th winning ticket sold in 2024, and the final drawing of the year, which also saw a $2 million split between Illinois and Missouri. Officials urge players to verify their tickets from key draws, including Jan. 1, Dec. 29, and Dec. 31 — and remind everyone that Illinois’ current prize multiplier is three.
