Wednesday's Powerball Numbers: 11, 13, 14, 21, 65 and Powerball 19
On Wednesday, 7 October 2026, the white balls came out as 11, 13, 14, 21 and 65, followed by the red Powerball 19. The Power Play multiplier was 2x. The jackpot on offer was US$485 million, with a cash value of US$199.7 million, and nobody won it.
