Overview

  • The California Lottery confirmed on June 26 that Willer matched all six numbers in the March SuperLotto Plus drawing to claim the $30 million top prize.
  • She chose a lump sum cash payout of about $14 million to minimize her federal tax liability.
  • The winning ticket was purchased at a 76 Gas Station off Highway 101 in Cotati, Sonoma County.
  • Under California Lottery policy, the retailer that sold the jackpot-winning ticket will receive a $150,000 bonus.
  • SuperLotto Plus winners have 180 days to claim their prizes and ticket sales fund public schools while offering '2nd Chance' drawings for non-winning entries.
